Chiefs' Chris Jones: Back at practice
Chiefs head coach Andy Reid said Friday that Jones (calf) is participating in practice, Matt McMullen of the Chiefs' official site reports.
Jones missed Kansas City's final two regular-season games due to a calf injury, though the majority of starters sat Week 18 regardless of health. Having secured the No. 1 seed in the AFC, Jones will have another week to get healthy before working to make his return during the divisional round of the playoffs.

Chiefs' Chris Jones: Sidelined for Week 18
Jones (calf) is inactive for Sunday's game against the Broncos.
Jones didn't play against the Steelers on Christmas Day due to a calf injury. He was unable to practice all week, but that could partially have to do with the Chiefs being locked in as the AFC's No. 1 seed, and Jones' next opportunity to play won't be until the divisional round. Mike Pennel will likely start at defensive tackle alongside Tershawn Wharton due to Jones' absence.

Chiefs' Chris Jones: Likely missing Week 18
Jones (calf) is listed as doubtful ahead of Sunday's matchup against the Broncos.
Jones was unable to practice all week after missing the Chiefs' Week 17 win over the Steelers on Christmas Day due to a calf injury, so it's no surprise he's expected to be sidelined Sunday. The All-Pro defensive lineman appeared in 15 games for Kansas City this season, recording 37 total tackles, including 5.0 sacks, and one forced fumble. Marlon Tuipulotu and Derrick Nnadi are expected to have increased roles on the Chiefs' defensive line with Jones likely out in Week 18.

Chiefs' Chris Jones: Still tending to calf
Jones (calf) did not participate at practice Wednesday, Matt McMullen of the Chiefs' official site reports.
Jones sat out of the Chiefs' contest in Week 17 at Pittsburgh due to a calf injury, and now his availability for their regular-season finale is in doubt. He'll probably have to practice in some capacity Thursday or Friday to have any chance to play Sunday at Denver.

Chiefs' Chris Jones: Not playing Wednesday
Jones (calf) is inactive for Wednesday's game against the Steelers.
As expected, Jones will sit out the Christmas Day contest due to the strained calf he suffered in last Saturday's win over the Texans. With the star defensive tackle sidelined Wednesday, Mike Pennel is likely slated for more snaps on the interior of the line.

Chiefs' Chris Jones: Not likely to play Christmas Day
Jones (calf) remains listed as questionable but is considered unlikely to play Wednesday versus Pittsburgh, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.
Jones strained his calf in last Saturday's win over Houston and was listed as non-participant on two and a limited participant on one of the Chiefs' three Week 17 injury reports. The defensive tackle doesn't seem to have demonstrated enough improvement in his recovery from the injury to play Wednesday, but an official word on his status will arrive when Kansas City posts its inactive list 90 minutes prior to the 1 p.m. ET kickoff. If Jones can't play Wednesday, Mike Pennel could be in line for more than his usual allotment of defensive snaps on the interior.

Chiefs' Chris Jones: Iffy for Christmas Day game
The Chiefs list Jones (calf) as questionable for Wednesday's game at Pittsburgh.
Jones strained his calf in this past Saturday's win over the Texans and was listed as a non-participant Sunday and Monday on the team's first two estimated practice reports of the week. The standout defensive lineman was upgraded to a limited participant Tuesday, though the Chiefs merely held a walk-through session. Kansas City will presumably check in with Jones early Wednesday to see how his calf is feeling, but given the quick turnaround for the Week 17 contest, it wouldn't be surprising if the team erred on the side of caution and held him out for the first time all season.

Chiefs' Chris Jones: Sitting out of Monday's practice
Head coach Andy Reid said Jones (calf) will not participate in Monday's practice, Matt Derrick of ChiefsDigest.com reports.
Jones strained his calf during the Chiefs' 27-19 win over the Texans this past Saturday, and he is considered a "big question mark" for Wednesday's bout against the Steelers, per Jay Glazer of Fox Sports. If Jones is unable to suit up for Christmas Day, then Derrick Nnadi and Mike Pennel would be in line to see increased snaps at defensive tackle alongside starter Tershawn Wharton.

Chiefs' Chris Jones: Uncertain for Wednesday
Jones (calf) is considered a "big question mark" for Wednesday's game against the Steelers, Jay Glazer reported on "Fox NFL Sunday."
Jones hurt his calf in Saturday's 27-19 win over the Texans and was diagnosed with a Grade 1 strain following an MRI on Sunday, per Glazer. The Chiefs are facing a quick turnaround for the Week 17 game, with the team having just three full days off before the Christmas Day matchup with Pittsburgh. Jones would have a much better shot at playing in Pittsburgh if the game was held on Sunday, but the Chiefs could err on the side of caution and hold the star defensive tackle out on a short week.

Chiefs' Chris Jones: Dealing with strained calf
Coach Andy Reid said Jones suffered a strained calf in Saturday's win over the Texans, Pete Sweeney of ArrowheadPride.com reports.
Jones was injured in the second half against Houston, and now Kansas City is once again on a short week ahead of Wednesday's Christmas Day matchup with the Steelers. Derrick Nnadi and Mike Pennel would be next up for snaps on the interior of the Chiefs' defensive line should Jones need to miss Week 17.

Chiefs' Chris Jones: Hurts calf against Texans
Jones (calf) is questionable to return to Saturday's game against the Texans.
Jones went down grabbing his calf in the second half. Prior to getting hurt, the star defensive tackle had two tackles and four quarterback hits. Jones has only 5.0 sacks this season, but he has drawn frequent double teams to free up Kansas City's other pass rushers to wreak havoc.

Chiefs' Chris Jones: Notches first sacks since Week 4
Jones logged six tackles (three solo), including 2.0 sacks, in Friday's 19-17 win against the Raiders.
Jones had been uncharacteristically quiet on the sack front coming into Friday, going seven games in a row without a sack. However, he got to Raiders QB Aidan O'Connell twice in the second quarter Friday. Bolton now has 5.0 sacks on the season, so he'll need to go on a run over Kansas City's final five regular-season games to reach double-digit sacks for the third straight campaign.
