From the Truman Sports Complex

Reshard Langford is back with the Chiefs, signed to take the roster spot of starter SS Eric Berry who was officially placed on the injured-reserve list on Wednesday.

Langford was with the team through the 2010 season and into training camp and the pre-season this year before he was released as part of the Chiefs roster cut to 53 players.

During the open media window to Wednesday’s practice, the secondary was working in the nickel defense, and Sabby Piscitelli and Donald Washington were working in Berry’s spot. Veteran Jon McGraw figures to be the starter in the base defense.

All 61 players on the active roster and practice squad were on the field for Wednesday afternoon’s session. WR Jonathan Baldwin continues to be a limited participant because of that broken right thumb. He was back in the rehab area once the receivers started catching passes. He continues to wear a brace on the right wrist and hand. Of course, no word from the Chiefs on how far away he may be from being a full-time participant in practice, let alone playing in a game.

OT Jared Gaither (knee) appeared to be taking part in the practice while the offensive line worked in position drills. He was inactive for last Sunday’s game because of that injury.

The Chiefs also made moves on their practice squad roster. They brought back FB Shane Bannon and OL Butch Lewis, who were released from the practice squad last week. To make room for them on the eight-man team, they released TE Kyle Nelson and OL Lucas Patterson, who they signed last week.

In fact, Patterson was added to the practice squad on Saturday and was released on Wednesday, without taking the field for a practice. It’s an odd move by the Chiefs. Nelson was a “Lookie Lou” because of his ability as a long snapper.

We’ll update with the Chiefs injury/participation report later this afternoon.
