RIVER FALLS, WIS. -- Just got back from the Chiefs workout. Had a tremendously productive two days here. I head back to Denver and will check out the Broncos and Cowboys joint practice Wednesday.

Before I head out, here is a Chiefs' evening update:

Coach Herman Edwards addressed the possibility of the Chiefs pursuing kicker Jay Feely who was just cut by Miami. The Chiefs have inexperienced kickers Connor Barth and Nick Novak in camp. Edwards didn't deny the Chiefs will have interest in Feely, but said the team will continue to see what both Barth and Novak can do. In other words, Feely may have to wait.

"We know what he can do," Edwards said of Feely. "Nothing is out of the realm of us getting better."

I talked to someone familiar with Feely's situation this evening and I was led to believe Feely may wait until, at least, after this weekend's games as teams look at what they have in camp.

Like Kansas City, Denver may also show interest in Feely if Matt Prater fails. Prater missed one of four field goals against Houston on Saturday night but he has missed just four field goals all training camp.

Meanwhile, Chiefs top draft pick Glenn Dorsey worked about 10-12 plays Tuesday as he did Monday. He is coming back from a knee injury he suffered Aug. 2. While Edwards hasn't ruled Dorsey out of the Chiefs' home preseason game against Arizona on Saturday, his chances are better of playing Aug. 23 at Miami.

Also, Chiefs quarterback Brodie Croyle praised rookie receiver Will Franklin. The Missouri product is currently winning the No. 2 receiver spot ahead of Devard Darling and Jeff Webb.
Meanwhile, around the AFC West:

The Raiders made a minor roster move and perhaps Champ Bailey's hamstring injury is a good omen in Denver.
