Some notes
- Wide receiver JuJu Smith-Schuster (illness) was back to practice after missing on Wednesday. He is expected to play.
- Running back Jerick McKinnon (hamstring) and wide receiver Kadarius Toney (hamstring) missed practice for the second straight day. McKinnon’s two straight absences make it possible for the Chiefs could call up talented pass-catching back Melvin Gordon for the game.
- It was a good sign that safety Juan Thornhill (calf) and starting left guard Joe Thuney (ankle) were full participants on both Wednesday and Thursday. Both players missed last week’s game against the Los Angeles Rams but are tracking to make their return after a one-game absence.
- Safety Deon Bush (elbow) was limited again.
- On the Bengals’ side Ja’Marr Chase (hip) was limited for the second straight day. Chase hasn’t played since Week 6 and could have perhaps played last week, but was held out as a precaution. Starting running back Joe Mixon (concussion), who missed last game due to his concussion, was also limited again.
- Defensive tackle DJ Reader (ankle), who recently made his return to the lineup for Cincinnati, was also limited on Wednesday but did not practice Thursday due to personal reasons, according to reporters in Cincinnati.
