SB Nation blog Arrowhead Pride assesses the reports coming out of Chiefs’ practice regarding injured quarterback Matt Cassel:
Cassel’s Status for Week 2 Still Unclear Amid Conflicting Reports
Neal Jones of KCTV5 attended practice and said Matt Cassel did not look close to 100%. We’re not as concerned with being 100% as we are with him being available to play on Sunday. I think he’s got a little ways before he’ll be 100% but my prediction is that he’s on the field this weekend.
The Associated Press, however, reports (Thanks to Patrick Allen for the link) that Cassel was “running more briskly” in Wednesday’s practice.
Bob Gretz’s outlook is much more positive than that of KCTV5’s Jones.
“But on Wednesday, Cassel did everything the other three quarterbacks did. There was noticeable improvement on his pass drops; they were quicker and more pronounced. His follow through on that left knee also looked stronger.
“Overall, he looked far better than he did at any time last week.”
