Chiefs Injury Update: Kicker Cairo Santos Misses Practice Tuesday

An update from Chiefs camp on Tuesday

There were a couple of new guys added to the injury report Tuesday afternoon for the Kansas City Chiefs.

First, the noticeable player missing from the special teams' units was kicker Cairo Santos, who is battling a groin injury suffered Monday afternoon.

"He tweaked his groin a little bit," Chiefs coach Andy Reid explained after practice. "Potential scar tissue from an injury he had before in college. So, we'll just monitor it and see how he does. We've got some other kickers that are going to come in, and we're going to work those guys out just in case he can't go in this game.

"But [Santos] is going to be fine. It's not a serious deal."

The other guys not practicing Tuesday morning were tight end Travis Kelce (knee), safety Eric Berry (heel), cornerback De'Vante Basuby (ankle), defensive lineman Tanoh Kpassagnon (slight shin splints), and defensive tackle Bennie Logan (knee).

Kelce was seen running across the field early in practice, which can't be a bad sign with a compression sleeve on his leg.

The same four guys remain on the PUP (physically unable to perform) list with defensive lineman Chris Jones (knee), linebackers Tamba Hali (knee) and Dadi Nicolas (knee), and offensive lineman Parker Ehinger (knee).
