Chiefs Activate Edwards-Helaire, Achane Nears Return

Miami Dolphins running back Devon Achane appears to be on the verge of returning to play, having completed back-to-back full practices without restriction, which indicates he is nearing the end of concussion protocol and awaiting neurologist clearance for Sunday's game against Indianapolis. In Kansas City, the Chiefs have activated Clyde Edwards-Helaire from the non-football illness list after he missed the first five games due to issues related to PTSD and cyclic vomiting syndrome. Edwards-Helaire, who has been with the team since his 2020 draft, could play a significant role given Isiah Pacheco's injury, although Kareem Hunt has been performing well as the lead back. Head Coach Andy Reid expressed optimism about Edwards-Helaire's return, acknowledging the player's mental health challenges and the support he has received from the team. This activation bolsters the Chiefs' backfield as they prepare for their upcoming game against the San Francisco 49ers.
