KANSAS CITY, Mo. – The Chiefs list eight players on Friday’s injury report for Sunday’s game against the Miami Dolphins.
Running back Jamaal Charles (ankle) headlines the report, as the All-Pro put in a limited practice for the second straight day. The Chiefs officially list Charles as questionable.
“He worked a little bit yesterday (Thursday),” Chiefs coach Andy Reid said, “but he loosened up and he kind of went as it went. We’ll just see how he does.”
Second-year running back Knile Davis would start if Charles is unavailable Sunday.
The Chiefs list strong safety Eric Berry (ankle) and rookie running back/wide receiver De’Anthony Thomas (ankle) as out.
Reid said Berry’s ankle is not connected to the right heel injury that caused Berry to miss the preseason.
“I don’t think they’re related,” Reid said. “I think two separate deals.”
Fourth-year pro Ron Parker will likely start in Berry’s place.
The Chiefs hoped Thomas would make his regular-season debut this week, and Thomas put in a limited practice Wednesday before missing the past two days.
Reid said Thomas did not aggravate the hamstring injury suffered on Sept. 3.
“He didn’t reinjure,” Reid said. “It’s just more precautionary. Let’s get it settled down, not do anything that re-hurts it.”
Outside linebacker Tamba Hali (ankle/knee) is listed as questionable, but practiced in a limited fashion the entire week. Hali should be available Sunday.
The Chiefs list free safety Husain Abdullah (foot/quad), running back Cyrus Gray (foot), (hip), center Eric Kush (shoulder), linebacker Josh Martin (quad/tricep) and as probable.
Wide receivers Dwayne Bowe (quad), Frankie Hammond Jr. (shoulder), Junior Hemingway (hip) and Albert Wilson (ankle) were removed from Friday’s report after being listed the past two days.
The Dolphins list linebacker Koa Misi (ankle), running back Knowshon Moreno (elbow) and guard Shelley Smith (knee) as out.
Former Chiefs, current Dolphins left tackle Branden Albert (shoulder) is probable.
