Berry (heel) won't take part in Wednesday's practice session, but Chiefs coach Andy Reid noted that he's "making progress," BJ Kissel of the Chiefs' official site reports.
EDGE Analysis
Berry missed the Chiefs' Week 1 contest as he continues to battle a sore heel likely related to the torn Achilles suffered in 2018. His marked progress is certainly a positive sign, though no word on a potential return date has surfaced as of yet.

Berry (heel) won't play Sunday against the Chargers, BJ Kissel of the Chiefs' official site reports.

Berry (heel) is listed as doubtful for Sunday's game against the Chargers, Adam Teicher of ESPN.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
Head coach Andy Reid reinforced Berry's doubtful tag Friday, saying that the cornerback "probably won't" play in the season opener. Berry has been nursing the heel injury since mid-August, and while it remains unclear what the ailment stems from, the defensive back will need at least another week off to continue his recovery.

Berry (heel) was a non-participant in practice Wednesday, Brooke Pryor of The Kansas City Star reports.
EDGE Analysis
Coach Andy Reid labeled Berry "day-to-day" Monday, so the Chiefs could simply be taking a cautious approach to the star safety's recovery as the regular-season opener approaches. It remains unclear if Berry's heel soreness is related to the Achilles injury that cost him nearly the entire 2017 season. The veteran seems likely to return in the near future, but it remains to be seen whether Berry will suit up against the Chargers on Sunday.

Coach Andy Reid on Monday labeled Berry "day-to-day" as he recovers from a sore heel, BJ Kissel of the Chiefs' official site reports.
EDGE Analysis
It's certainly a positive sign that Berry isn't facing an extended absence after missing nearly all of 2017 with a torn Achilles, but he will likely be worked back slowly to avoid further complications. It remains to be seen if he will be available for the regular-season opener Sunday against the Chargers.

Berry (heel) will not dress for Friday's preseason game against the Falcons, Nate Taylor of The Athletic Kansas City reports.
EDGE Analysis
It's unclear if the heel soreness Berry is experiencing relates to his Achilles injury from a season ago, but the team already knows he can play and has little incentive to rush him back to action. Berry's next opportunity to dress arrives next Saturday against the Bears, while Eric Murray and Leon McQuay are candidates for additional playing time in his absence.

Berry didn't practice Sunday due to a heel injury, Brooke Pryor of The Kansas City Star reports.
EDGE Analysis
The team hasn't expressed much concern about Berry's heel soreness and was likely holding him out for precautionary reasons. Look for Eric Murray and Robert Golden to get some run with the first-team defense while Berry is out.

Berry (Achilles) has returned to full participation in practice, The Athletic reports.
EDGE Analysis
Berry was present for the beginning of offseason workouts and has now progressed to full participation in drills. It remains to be seen how effective he will be in his return from an injury that can have a major impact on explosiveness. Regardless, the veteran should serve as a quarterback in the secondary and has a history of recovering from major setbacks after battling his way back from Hodgkin's Lymphoma earlier in his career.

Berry (Achilles) was present for the beginning of offseason workouts, Terez A. Paylor of The Kansas City Star reports.
EDGE Analysis
Berry's appearance at the team's offseason workouts indicates the safety is closing in on a complete recovery from the ruptured Achilles' tendon that derailed his 2017 season. Those close to the team will likely monitor every step and breath Berry takes, but with five months still to go before the regular season kicks off it appears Berry is finally getting his feet back underneath him.
