Eric Berry misses Wednesday practice, in question for Saturday’s divisional

Guess who’s day to day again.

Kansas City Chiefs safety Eric Berry is not practicing Wednesday, the second day of work as the team prepares to take on the Indianapolis Colts on Saturday afternoon in the AFC’s divisional round.

Berry missed practice on Friday, December 28, before he was eventually held out of the Chiefs’ final game of the season against the Oakland Raiders. Berry practiced limitedly to start this week on Tuesday, which many felt was a good sign, but he could not participate on Wednesday as he deals with his lingering heel injury.

“It’s difficult from the standpoint of he’s a real critical part of our team,” defensive coordinator Bob Sutton said when asked about the uncertainty surrounding the three-time All-Pro. “He’s an outstanding player. He’s one of our true leaders, the guys rally around him, so I think that part is always hard. You get caught up in different things in the season. But also, if you stick back for a second, you say, ‘Man, this is really hard on this guy, too, as a player. This is something he loves to do. He’s been really good at it, and as difficult as it is on us as a defensive unit or us as a team, I think for him, it’s really challenging.’

“So it’s just what it is. There’s not a lot you can do about it, and every week we’ve got our fingers crossed and hope that he can make it back and go. It’s truly—I know you guys get tired of hearing this—it really is a day to day to day thing here right now, the way it’s playing out. You just got to stay in there and go and figure out how to get other guys ready in case he can’t go.”

Berry was originally held out of the Chiefs’ first 13 games with what the team described as a sore heel, though reports, which have never been confirmed (nor denied) said Berry has what is called a “Haglund’s deformity.”

Berry eventually returned to the lineup to play 30 snaps Week 15 against the Los Angeles Chargers and played 69 snaps Week 16 against the Seattle Seahawks before what has appeared to be some sort of setback.

Sutton was asked Wednesday about who would replace Berry and linebacker Dorian O’Daniel, who hasn’t practiced at all this week, if they couldn’t play against the Colts.

Without Berry in a must-win game against the Raiders when it came to playoff home-field advantage, the safety snap count breakdown was as follows: Daniel Sorensen (63), Eric Murray (33), Jordan Lucas (32) and Ron Parker (6).

In the above breakdown, it is important to note that Sorensen and Lucas earned the start. Lucas suffered a stinger, and the Chiefs eventually removed starters in a 35-3 blowout.

It remains to be seen who the Chiefs start against the Colts if Berry cannot play once again.

A note on Dorian O’Daniel

#Chiefs special teams coordinator Dave Toub on LB Dorian O’Daniel, who has missed two practices this week: “He’s a four-phase starter for us. He’s an important guy, so we’re keeping an eye on that one, pretty close.”

“I wouldn’t tell you,” he initially said with a smile. “We have to work guys in, obviously, and just see where guys are. The one good thing is you’re at the point of the season where if you do have to miss some reps and you get better toward to the end of the week, this is probably the time to do it. We just have to kind of roll guys through, which we try to do, anyway, but when you have a guy in question, you have to say, ‘OK,’ because that usually affects somebody else.

“Sometimes that affects special teams ... It’s going to affect Dave (Toub) and what he’s putting together, so you got to kind of stay on top of that as a total staff, too. But we just got to slide and we’ve got some different options, but we kind of have to wait and see where it’s at.”

We always seem to do what no other team does. I’ve never seen a injury dragged out like this and handled this way. Same with the signing and cutting of spiller like 4 times in a season. Personally I don’t like the team doctors and strength trainers and hope they scrap them along with the whole defensive staff.

What could the team doctors have done? Or strength trainers?

Ketal exercises or a vagasil massage.

Stinky and Oddball panhandled at the game to raise up some Ketel One vodka for EB, but vagisil is clearly Sutton's department.

I'm just hoping this game they don't cut to the sideline video of Sutton who has that "Did I just shit myself?" or clueless look that scream "What are these boys doing on my lawn?"

What the Underpass 4 has done and contributed can never be under estimated. To Hobo thank you for bringing them into the fold. #SilverLining

Survey says they've implemented some "contingency plan" whereby two underlings are more involved in game prep and are helping to relieve ol' Buttons of some of his incontinence, but he'll still be the old coot on the sideline with the clipboard daydreaming about Sophia Loren and .25 cent gas prices.

Im. Not sure any other team would have drug this out like this. I don’t know of any player in the league that has this scenario. I believe any other team would have IR ‘ed him earlier in the season and told him to get the surgery. That’s it season done for EB. I mean they drop the ball on Houston and brought him back when he wasn’t ready and I believe the trainer go hand in hand with the docs in treatment. I think this team has blown more Achilles then any other team and it might be just shit luck but when you have that many you should look at everthing. Jus say’n IMO

The Houston thing was on James Andrews.

With this Berry thing I'm not sure what they're suppose to do. It's a pain tolerance thing and if he says he's going to be able to go soon and they you know think there's a good chance he'll suck it up..and then he doesn't, what do you do?

Their option is literally to cut him.

There's been a lot of debate here about the competence of the Chiefs medical staff. I'd like to see figures from around the league for the sake of comparison, just for shits and giggles.

Just reporting on NFL Network that Berry is definitely (probably) out.
