| Larry Johnson (foot) could return this Sunday, provided he makes it through practice. "I think the more he goes through individual things and more strenuous situations, through the whole week, we’ll see if he has soreness after every day," head coach Herm Edwards tells the Kansas City Star. "He’s gone through one or two days. He’s never gone the whole week. We’ll have to find out where that’s at... We don’t have to make that right now. It’ll be more than he’s done in previous (practices). He’s done individual (work) for the most part. He feels a lot better than he felt four weeks ago." Kolby Smith has been starting in his place. |
