Eric Berry Expected to Make Season Debut vs. Chargers After Achilles Injury

Kansas City Chiefs safety Eric Berry, who hasn't played since rupturing his Achilles in Week 1 of the 2017 NFL season, will return to the field on Thursday against the Los Angeles Chargers, per Adam Schefter of ESPN.

Berry's return comes in a timely fashion, as the 11-2 Chiefs will win the AFC West with a victory over the 10-3 Bolts. A loss would leave the division in a deadlock with two games remaining.

A three-time All-Pro, Berry dominated in his last full season (2016) thanks to 77 tackles and four interceptions, two of which were returned for touchdowns.
