The Kansas City Chiefs appear poised to get an infusion of receiver talent for Sunday night’s game against the New York Giants.

Head coach Andy Reid said that he expected both Xavier Worthy (shoulder) and Jalen Royals (knee) to practice with no limitations on Wednesday, but both were listed as limited participants on the official injury report.

Worthy went down with a dislocated shoulder, later reported as a torn labrum, on the fourth play of the Chiefs’ season-opening loss to the Los Angeles Chargers. While it was originally feared Worthy would need surgery, he returned to practice late last week and is now in line to miss just one full game.

Worthy was productive as a rookie last season, finishing with 638 yards and six touchdown catches.

Royals, a fourth-round pick in this year’s draft, has been sidelined since training camp due to knee tendinitis.

“He’s coming (along) pretty good,” Reid said of Royals. “We’ll see how he does here. He’s been out for a while.”

Getting either of these targets back available would be a boost considering Rashee Rice has four games left to serve on a disciplinary suspension tied to a high-speed crash in March 2024.

Chiefs QB Patrick Mahomes, a two-time MVP, ranks 15th in the league with 445 passing yards through two games. He has been dealing with a right wrist issue and was listed on the injury report as a full participant.

Defensive end Mike Danna (quad) and cornerback Kristian Fulton (ankle) did not practice.

Both the Chiefs and host Giants are 0-2.
