De'Anthony Thomas returns

De'Anthony Thomas returned to practice today.

DAT left Tuesday's practice early. The Chiefs said after practice he was sick, presumably from that KC humidity and two-plus hours of practice.

RB De’Anthony Thomas initally chuckled, then said on dealing with KC humidity: "Just got to keep working hard, keep some fluids in my body."

Weston Dressler is back, too

Good news for the competition at the Chiefs slot receiver. Dressler went down last week with a hamstring injury. I was slightly concerned when he wasn't there on Tuesday but he was back on Wednesday.

Sean Smith misses another practice

CB Sean Smith was again not here, presumably for an illness

The Chiefs said he was also sick on Tuesday. So we still don't know if Smith's demotion to the second team will last.

Three more players leave early

Chiefs TE Sean McGrath (knee), CB Phillip Gaines, RT Donald Stephenson (calf) all left today's minicamp practice early.

Andy Reid will be talking on Thursday so hopefully we have some sort of update on those guys. If not, it's a looong offseason.

Zach Fulton in the running at right guard?

Zach Fulton seems to be earning more and more of the first-team reps at RG. We'll see how he does in pads, through.

— Terez A. Paylor (@TerezPaylor) June 18, 2014

This is something I noticed on Tuesday out at Chiefs minicamp. Fulton played a good chunk of the right guard reps and that continued. Maybe this means something?

As Herbie says ...

The Chiefs continue to shuffle right side of offensive line, which is obviously subject to change in training camp.

More practice observations

This was a rough day of practice for the DBs. Parker had two PIs on long passes and Avery & Hammond both had long TD over the middle.

— Terez A. Paylor (@TerezPaylor) June 18, 2014

Chiefs WR Dwayne Bowe made full-extension leaping grab on pass from QB Alex Smith during 11-on-11. Drew "oohs" from teammates on sidelines.

Notes from Chiefs mini-camp: Red still major player in color scheme, passing to receivers. I've said too much...

— Mick Shaffer (@mickshaffer) June 18, 2014

Bray continues to battle with his accuracy. Sailed a deep throw and missed a WR wide open over the middle.

Vance Walker got more reps with the 1's today. #Chiefs
