“[Pacheco] had some things taken out that were floaters in there. But he’s doing well,” Reid said. “So, he’s moving around good and we’ll probably anticipate getting him back next week.”

Reid noted that Pacheco has already been involved in Kansas City’s walk-throughs after undergoing the procedure.

Additionally, left tackle Donovan Smith (neck) will miss a second consecutive game after he didn’t practice this week. That puts Wanya Morris in line to start at left tackle once again.

Safety Mike Edwards (illness) returned from his illness and practiced, Reid said.

While receiver Justyn Ross has returned from his suspension and was a full participant in practice, Reid said the Chiefs won’t activate him until next week.

“I thought he did a nice job. Moved around well, yeah,” Reid said. “It was good for him to get out there and work. He did all the scout-team reps. So, that was a good thing for him.”
