Chiefs outside linebacker Justin Houston made an appearance outside while his teammates were practicing for the first time all camp on Monday.

Houston, who is working his back from an ACL injury, wore a bucket hat as he continued his rehab by working on his hand movements, something he’s previously done inside the training facility.

On Sunday, Chiefs coach Andy Reid confirmed Houston is with the team — “he’s in the building, yes,” he said — but didn’t have an update on his status.

“He’s the same as he was before — we’re taking it day-to-day,” Reid said. “When you’re around him, he gives you confidence that he’s going to be ready to go this year, but we’ll see how it all works out.”

Houston underwent surgery in February to repair an ACL that was not functioning properly. Reid added Sunday that the Chiefs are going to be careful with him.

“I’m going to listen to the doctors, the trainers and Justin and see how things work out,” he said.
Practice notes

Center Mitch Morse missed a portion of practice Monday. Morse missed Saturday’s game with an illness. Left guard Parker Ehinger missed practice Monday with an illness. Zach Fulton earned the first-team work at center in Morse’s place while Jah Reid earned the first-team work at left guard.

Safety Eric Berry, who made his return to the field on Monday after skipping the first month of training, rotated in with the first-string at safety next to Ron Parker.

Safety Jeron Johnson was excused from practice for personal reasons.

reid talks about like it like's a mystery beyond scientific knowing...

I think that's because we're overanalyzing everything at this point.

The fact that he was out there, and Reid's comments, give me confidence. I don't see any reason to get a negative vibe from that report.

O freaks out about everything, but he's right that this situation is weird that we STILL don't have any kind of timetable.

Reid's comments don't seem to bring much confidence to it.

Houston thinks he'll play but we'll see. Seems to me everyone but houston leans to him not playing this season

That is an extremely negative way to take his comments IMO lol.

Just because he's saying that being around Houston "gives you confidence" means he doesn't believe it himself?

I mean, he's saying he makes him (Reid) feel that way. Meaning he feels that way too.

I understand why you're concerned, but I think you're overanalyzing this report.

i think he is tempering expectations, ya know, because he had ****ing ACL surgery 6 months ago.

ACL taking more than 9 months to rehab would be far different than the norm with medicine and technology today

Maybe the team will get over the yearly bout of the flu before the regular season starts.

Either that, or Morse and Ehinger have mono.

Exactly. The only way he doesn't play is if there's more to it, and if it's more to it why would they even be teasing us with the possibility of him coming back still? Have him show up on the practice field when you know it's going to be reported? Continue to say these things about him giving you confidence "be ready to go this season"?

Also, how do you keep that from the media for this long?
