Chiefs' Darron Lee: Feeling ill
Darron Lee (illness) didn't participate in Wednesday's practice, BJ Kissel of the Kansas City Chiefs' official site reports.This shouldn't be an issue as long as Lee can get back onto the field by Friday's practice. Regardless, the team's starting linebackers are fully healthy, so his absence would only hurt the depth, in which Dorian O'Daniel stands to be the main beneficiary if Lee is out for Sunday's game against the Packers.

Chiefs' Darron Lee: Traded to Kansas City
The Jets agreed to trade Darron Lee to the Kansas City Chiefs on Wednesday in exchange for a 2020 sixth-round pick, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.After the Jets were unwilling to pick up Lee's fifth-year option for 2020 earlier in the offseason, the team and interim general manager/head coach Adam Gase chose to ship the linebacker elsewhere. The 2016 first-round pick was left without a starting job after the Jets signed C.J. Mosley to a massive contract back in March. Lee is still on track to be a free agent next spring, unless the Chiefs are interested in discussing an extension before the start of the new league year. For now, Lee is expected battle for snaps in a linebacking core that already features Anthony Hitchens and Reggie Ragland.
