Priest Holmes Back in Action?
Priest Holmes is officially back… practicing at least.
Holmes is eligible to return to practice this week, and coach Herm Edwards said Holmes would participate Wednesday when the Chiefs begin preparations for Sunday’s game against the Raiders in Oakland.
Asked when Holmes might play in a game, Edwards said, “I don’t know. I’d like to see him practice first. I’ll be able to answer that Wednesday after practice or Thursday.”
Do I think Priest’s comeback is serious? Well, I have him on my fantasy team’s IR, so to some extent I do. Hey, I’ve already seen the guy come back from one “career-ending injury.” Still, I’m not overly optimistic about his return actually improving the Chiefs. I do think he could be a better change-of-pace back than Michael Bennett, though. If he’s healthy, that is. I suppose we’ll know more about Priest’s health later on in the week.
