Dwayne Bowe

The Chiefs could benefit from the return of receiver Dwayne Bowe, who served a one-game suspension last week for violating the league's substance abuse policy.

"We'll ease him back in," HC Andy Reid said. "He really hasn't done much for a few weeks. He had the quad (injury) there before his suspension."

It's not clear if Reid is talking about practice or the game, but owners should keep Bowe's suspension and lack of practice reps in August in mind when setting their lineups this week.
