It turns out the preliminary reports about Eric Berry’s slow return to the field were correct. Ian Rapoport reported early Sunday morning that the Kansas City Chiefs safety is not expected to play in Week 13 on the road against the Oakland Raiders despite a clean week back at practice.
Berry returned to practice for the first time since August 11 this week and, as Rapoport notes, he experienced a pain-free return to the field. This is good news as Berry continues to work himself into game shape but apparently he’s not quite ready for the task of suiting up against the Raiders just yet.
