Help is on the way. The #Chiefs added to their offense Tuesday by acquiring wide receiver Josh Downs. More on the deadline-day trade everybody's been anticipating for weeks: kansascity.com/sports/nfl/ka…

Chiefs' Wednesday injury report included full designations for quarterback Patrick Mahomes and — a pleasant surprise — Xavier Worthy. Omarr Norman-Lott remains limited. On Norman-Lott, HC Andy Reid said, "We'll see where it goes over the next week or two."
The #Chiefs say Jaylon Moore (ankle) and Peter Woods (stinger) will be out of practice on Wednesday ahead of the Falcons.

Downs is a big addition for the Chiefs in the now, but don't forget about the future. Should everything go well, KC could opt to sign him long-term following the season, as Downs is due to become a UFA this offseason.
It's a 4th and a 5th for Josh Downs and a 7th, source confirms to The Star. A year ago, Rashid Shaheed went for a 4th and a 5th; and Jakobi Meyers went for a 4th and a 6th. This is in that same ballpark.

On the trade deadline, Chiefs' Andy Reid says "As you know, Brett (Veach) always keeps his eyes open. I don't have to say anything, but he's always looking and trying to improve to roster, and so that part hasn't changed. He's out there searching and doing his due diligence with his guys."

Chiefs' Andy Reid considers Patrick Mahomes (elbow), Xavier Worthy (hamstring) and Jaylon Moore (ankle) "day to day." He clarified with Mahomes that the news is more positive than negative, so it sounds like they're in the clear.

Andy Reid says he's yet to make any decision on Harrison Butker as of early Monday afternoon. And furthermore, he hasn't decided on whether Justin Tucker will see an increase in reps this week.
