KANSAS CITY, Mo. – Chiefs wide receiver Jeremy Maclin (back) returned to a full practice Tuesday ahead of Thursday night’s game against the Denver Broncos.
Also returning to a full practice after being limited on Monday are safety Husain Abdullah (quad) and rookie linebacker D.J. Alexander (hamstring).
Starting outside linebacker Tamba Hali (neck) was limited Tuesday for a second straight day.
The Chiefs list guard Jeff Allen (knee), wide receiver Jason Avant (hip), tackle Eric Fisher (ankle), tight end Demetrius Harris (foot), tight end Travis Kelce (hip), wide receiver Jeremy Maclin (back), linebacker Josh Mauga (Achilles), defensive tackle Dontari Poe (back), wide receiver De’Anthony Thomas (calf), running back Charcandrick West (Achilles) and wide receiver Albert Wilson (shouder) as full participants in Tuesday’s practice.
Poe played on 32 snaps in Week 1, which marked his return from back surgery, and appear set to potentially see more action against the Broncos.
“We wanted to keep him right around that area for that game,” coach Andy Reid said Tuesday. “We’ll just see how he does here this week, so I don’t necessarily have a number count for you.”
The Broncos list 10 players on the injury report, headlined by quarterback Peyton Manning, who practiced fully with a back injury.
