Chiefs encouraged by early returns with Justin Houston

KANSAS CITY, Mo. – The new guy on the Kansas City Chiefs practice field looked to linebacker Derrick Johnson as if he belonged, as if he hadn’t been off to the side and rehabbing his surgically repaired left knee for the several months.

“Justin looks good," Johnson said of fellow linebacker Justin Houston, who returned to practice this week. “He looks better than I thought he would. I thought he’d be limping just a little bit. But there was no limp to him. Of course he hasn’t banged up against anybody, so that’s still to be seen.
