That’s a crowd, so there’s no guarantee Pierre-Louis will make it to the regular season with the Chiefs. He played 34 games in three seasons with Seattle but started just one.
“He’s been cleared for everything, but we’re not going to push him out there too quickly,” coach Vance Joseph said, explaining that he didn’t want to risk ruining the dynamic dimension Charles could add to the Broncos’ offense.

Smith connected on 12 straight passes to start the 7-on-7 team drills, including two impressive throws to second-year wide receiver Tyreek Hill.
