KANSAS CITY, Mo. -- Following his second week fighting a stomach ailment, defensive end Frank Clark played more against the Denver Broncos on Sunday than the Kansas City Chiefs initially anticipated.
Clark, who said he started the season around 260 pounds but at one point during his illness had dropped to 238, played more Sunday because he was feeling good. An injury to fellow defensive end Alex Okafor also played a part, as did Clark's insistence to get on the field.
"We started off [slowly] with him, but he gets very aggravated with that," Chiefs coach Andy Reid said.
