On Wednesday, the Kansas City Chiefs once again held an early practice session, sttempting to avoid this week’s extreme heat in Kansas City. According to Arrowhead Pride’s Pete Sweeney, eight players were once again missing from the session. Over the last few days, cornerback L’Jarius Sneed (knee) has been present, but was without his helmet. On Wednesday, he was a no-show.
Out of practice for #Chiefs Wednesday: OL Nick Allegretti (shoulder), DT Matt Dickerson (toe), DT Chris Jones, CB Nic Jones (hand), DE George Karlaftis (sick), WR Nikko Remigio (shoulder), CB L’Jarius Sneed (knee), WR Kadarius Toney (knee)

While defensive end George Karlaftis was out sick for another day, defensive tackle Tershawn “Turk” Wharton was a full practice participant for second straight day — suggesting that he might have gotten past the knee swelling that kept him out of practice from August 11 through Monday.
