Holmes Practices, Still Not Definite For Sunday

There is still no word on whether Priest Holmes will see action on the field this weekend.  The Chiefs running back was suited up for practice yesterday, his first full workout in nearly two years.  He says he felt great afterward and is about 15 pounds lighter than he was in 2005.  Head coach Herm […]
