KC Chiefs kicker Cairo Santos remains out with an injury but that absence shouldn’t continue into the regular season. According to this tweet from NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport, Santos should be good for the regular season.
Kicker news: #Chiefs K Cairo Santos should be back at practice, kicking this week. Likely does only FGs but good for the regular season.

The Chiefs play their final preseason game on Thursday night against the Titans. Most of the Chiefs offensive and defensive starters will sit but I wonder if they get Santos some live practice out there on Thursday night. The Chiefs still have Sam Ficken on their roster as a backup to Santos. I doubt the Chiefs want to carry both kickers on their rosters after Saturday’s roster cut down to 53 players.
