Andy Reid makes major decision on three Kansas City Chiefs stars returning from injury in boost for Patrick Mahomes

KANSAS City was handed a big injury boost when three stars all returned to the practice field Wednesday.

The banged-up Chiefs moved closer to a full bill of health ahead of a massive showdown in Week 11.

Kansas City takes on the Buffalo Bills in one of the marquee games this weekend.

And seeing three Super Bowl winners back practicing was a welcome sight.

Running back Isiah Pacheco was at the facility having not played since Week 2 due to a fractured fibula.

Defensive star Charles Omenihu, meanwhile, was also on the field having been out since the playoffs.

He tore his ACL during the AFC Championship Game and missed the Super Bowl win over the San Francisco 49ers in Las Vegas.

Head coach Andy Reid said it was “unlikely” that either Pacheco or Omenihu will suit up against Buffalo.

But another returning star does have a chance of playing, Reid added.

Juju Smith-Schuster was back in practice for the first time since his hamstring injury in Week 7.

Like Omenihu and Pacheco, he was also limited in practice Wednesday.

But Reid declared, “There’s a good chance he’s back.

“We’ll see as we go through practice but if it’s up to him, he’s back.”

Kansas City listed 11 players on the injury report in total ahead of Week 11.

They included quarterback Patrick Mahomes (ankle/hip) and some of his key weapons.

DeAndre Hopkins (knee), Kareem Hunt (knee) and Mecole Hardman (shoulder/toe) were all on the report.

But the good news for Kansas City is all were able to fully practice Wednesday.

The Miami Dolphins are the only team in NFL history to ever go undefeated way back in 1972.

The Chiefs are 9-0 and have won 15 straight games dating back to December.

They edged past the Denver Broncos thanks to a last-second field goal block at Arrowhead Stadium on Sunday.

Head coach Reid was asked in his press conference what his message to the team was.

“There’s not much you can say,” he admitted. “The game told the story.

“I haven’t been around a lot of those walk-off blocks.

“I’m going to enjoy it, but I’m also going to work to fix the other things we need to fix before Buffalo.”
