The Chiefs could use all the defensive help available after what Aaron Rodgers just did to them.
They'll get some relief from an in-house source this week when suspended cornerback Sean Smith returns.
"I'll know more once I see him run around," head coach Andy Reid told reporters about Smith's status. "I would tell you yes, that's the thought (to have him start)."
And not a moment too soon for a secondary that surrendered five touchdowns on Monday night. Smith brings a level of physicality to the Chiefs that other DBs just don't.
Moreover, his return will allow rookie star Marcus Peters to sink back into a reserve role and learn. He'll find plenty of note-taking opportunities when Smith battles Bengals star A.J. Green this week.
"I know he's been working out like crazy so it's a matter of getting him into the football swing of things," Reid said. "Probably put him right back in and get him going."
