KANSAS CITY, Mo. – The Chiefs list 12 players on the initial injury report for Sunday’s game against the Seattle Seahawks.
Tight end Anthony Fasano (knee) and cornerback Jamell Fleming (hamstring) did not practice Wednesday, as expected.
Fasano suffered his injury in Week 10 against the Buffalo Bills, while Fleming has missed the past two games since suffering the injury in Week 8.
“He’s getting better,” coach Andy Reid said of Fleming, “but not quite ready.”
The Chiefs list wide receiver Donnie Avery (groin), linebacker Tamba Hali (knee), wide receiver A.J. Jenkins (shoulder) and cornerback Chris Owens (knee) as limited participants.
Avery, who has missed five straight games, was observed on the field participating in conditioning and individual position drills during the portion of Wednesday’s indoor practice open to the media. He appeared to run without limitations, but the Chiefs are likely easing him back given the lost time.
The Chiefs list as full participants the following: Running back Jamaal Charles (shoulder, elbow), cornerback Phillip Gaines (ankle, quad), tight end Travis Kelce (ribs), linebacker Josh Martin (hamstring, knee), linebacker Josh Mauga (groin) and cornerback Sean Smith (groin).
