Eric Berry has picked the perfect time to return to the Kansas City Chiefs.
Days after the team gave up 54 points to the Los Angeles Rams in a shootout of a loss, one in which the Chiefs put up 51 points but it still somehow was not enough, Sam Mellinger of the K.C. Star reports that Berry will “almost certainly” return to practice this week.
The wait has been a long time coming for the Chiefs, and everyone has felt the weight of his absence—even the fans. The Chiefs defense has certainly felt it the most, the void of one of the most dynamic safeties to ever play the game in the last decade or more.
