Andy Reid has critical update after Hollywood Brown carted off Chiefs practice
Marquise 'Hollywood' Brown Brown was carted off the field on Tuesday due to injury, but coach Andy Reid said after practice that the team was not overly concerned.
'I don't think it's too bad, but we'll see,' Reid told reporters, noting it was an ankle injury.
It brought back reminders to a season ago when Brown suffered a shoulder injury in a preseason game that kept him out for most of the season.

Brown was only able to appear in two regular season games for the Chiefs — pulling in nine passes for 91 yards.
Brown played in all three postseason games for the Chiefs, but was not a huge factor. The 28-year-old had five catches for 50 yards as the Chiefs made a run to the Super Bowl.
Kansas City lost to the Eagles, 40-22, failing in their attempt to three-peat.
Brown was not the only receiver to have an injury issue on Tuesday with Xavier Worthy 'banged his head' and Skyy Moore (hamstring) also leaving practice early.
The Chiefs would be forced to call on JuJu Smith-Schuster and 2025 fourth-round pick Jalen Royals to pick up the slack left behind.

The team's most-talented receiver, Rashee Rice, was sentenced to 30 days in jail for driving 119.5 MPH during a Dallas car crash — and could face suspension from the league when he is released.
In an optimistic sign before Reid's comments, Brown sat in the passenger seat — and not in the back of the cart.

That mirrors what happened to Jets quarterback Justin Fields just a few days ago. During practice, he came up limping and hitched a ride on the passenger side of the cart.
His injury turned out to be a dislocated toe, and Fields was back to practicing just a few days later.
The Chiefs open up with the Chargers on Friday, Sept. 5

Former Kansas City Chiefs TE Baylor Cupp to sign with the Baltimore Ravens
The Kansas City Chiefs made a few moves after the 2025 NFL draft on May 1st to accommodate incoming rookies. Former Texas Tech Red Raiders tight end Baylor Cupp was one of the releases and has reportedly found a new home during training camp. According to a report from CBS Sports, Cupp is signing with the Baltimore Ravens as they deal with injuries at the tight end position. Starting tight end Isaiah Likely notably went down with a foot injury in camp, requiring surgery. Cupp appeared in one game during the 2024 season but primarily spent the year on the practice squad after initially signing as an undrafted free agent. During Cupp's two seasons at Patrick Mahomes' alma mater, Texas Tech, in 2022 and 2023, he appeared in 24 games, tallying 23 catches for 246 yards and four touchdowns. The Chiefs have seen immediate progress from their 2025 undrafted free agent tight end, Jake Briningstool. The rookie from Clemson has made impressive plays in camp and is considered a serious contender to make the final roster.

Patriots draft bust makes highlight reel catch at Chiefs practice
Former New England Patriots wide receiver Tyquan Thornton is making an impact in training camp for the Kansas City Chiefs. Fans have been buzzing about his incredible corner end zone reception on a throw from Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes at a recent practice. Mahomes threw a perfect corner pass behind the defender, and Thornton went up to get the ball, while also making sure to tap both toes inbounds before falling out. The Patriots selected Thornton in the second round of the 2022 NFL draft. He had a disappointing run with the team and was ultimately released last November. In the same month, he signed with the Chiefs' practice squad. He also signed a reserve/future contract with the team in February. Thornton has 39 receptions for 385 yards and two touchdowns during his three-year NFL career. It looks like he's off to a good start with the Chiefs to change the narrative surrounding his name after a failed run in New England. There is still plenty of time for him to turn things around considering he is only 24 years old. Thornton has solid physical abilities, most notably his height and speed. He could have an opportunity to thrive in one of the most explosive offensive systems in the league. Follow Patriots Wire on Twitter and Facebook.

Stephanie Kyriacou already made an ace at the Women's British. Then she assisted on another
PORTHCAWL, Wales (AP) — Stephanie Kyriacou played a role in a pair of aces at the Women's British Open this week. She made the first hole-in-one of the championship at Royal Porthcawl. And on Sunday, she assisted on the other. Mimi Rhodes of England made a hole-in-one on the par-3 fifth hole when her tee shot glanced off the golf ball belonging to Kyriacou and caromed right into the cup in the final round. Her shot would have rolled by if not for Kyriacou's golf ball being there. Kyriacou had hit first and nearly made her second ace until the ball rolled just left of the hole, inches away. ___
