Juan Thornhill and Martinas Rankin are making good progress but…
“I’d say the same thing, they’re all making good progress, it’s just a matter of when they can come back. As the trainers ramp them up we’ll see, but neither one of them are ready to go right now. ” – Chiefs HC Andy Reid
These two former starters from the 2019 season aren’t ready to go yet. Both players were placed on the PUP list and Andy Reid has no timetable for their return. Thornhill, who started 17 games for the Chiefs in 2019, doesn’t seem to be particularly close to returning given Reid’s description of the work he’s yet to do with the training staff. It makes that much more sense why Kansas City brought in Tedric Thompson. This is something to monitor with just a month to go until the season opener.
