Three minor Chiefs transactions come through on Wednesday

The Kansas City Chiefs had three transactions come through on the wire Wednesday evening:

• Safety Juan Thornhill passed his physical.
• The Chiefs waived wide receiver Aleva Hifo.
• The Chiefs waived wide receiver Andre Baccellia.

Chiefs head coach Andy Reid noted that Thornhill participated in practice Wednesday in a limited capacity. The Chiefs had just brought back Hifo, but he had to be released to get the roster down to 80. Baccellia, a 5-foot-10 receiver from Washington, faced an uphill battle in making the Chiefs’ roster in a deep wide receiver room.
