Chiefs' Nazeeh Johnson: Ready for Week 1
Johnson (hamstring) was listed as a full participant during practice Monday and is not on the injury report for Thursday's game against the Ravens, Matt McMullen of the Chiefs' official site reports.
Johnson nursed a hamstring injury during training camp while also continuing his recovery from a torn ACL suffered last season. The Marshall product hasn't suited up since 2022, when he appeared in 11 regular-season games and only contributed on special teams. He'll likely have a similar role this season, barring injuries to the Chiefs' secondary.

Chiefs' Nazeeh Johnson: Dealing with hamstring injury
Johnson missed practice Monday due to a hamstring issue, Matt McMullen of the Chiefs' official site reports.
Johnson logged 28 defensive snaps along with seven special-teams snaps in Saturday's preseason loss to Detroit without recording any stats. He's likely to make the 53-man roster as a backup corner and special-teams player if he's able to get healthy. It's not yet clear how severe the hamstring issue is or whether Johnson will be able to play in Kansas City's final exhibition contest Thursday versus Chicago.

Chiefs' Nazeeh Johnson: Back at practice Sunday
Johnson (knee) is taking part in practice Sunday, Pete Sweeney of ArrowheadPride.com reports.
Johnson tore his ACL in July 2023 and tweaked the same knee last week, but it appears he has avoided a serious setback. As such, he'll continue to get reps in camp as he looks to secure the starting spot at right corner for the Chiefs.

Chiefs' Nazeeh Johnson: Misses Wednesday's practice
Johnson (knee) wasn't practicing Wednesday, Matt McMullen of the Chiefs' official site reports.
Johnson, who tore his right ACL in July of last year, tweaked the same knee earlier in the week and could continue to miss time with the issue. The Marshall product has an opportunity to be one of Kansas City's top cornerbacks in 2024, with L'Jarius Sneed leaving the Chiefs this offseason. Expect Ekow Boye-Doe and Miles Battle to see more reps with Kansas City's first-team defense with Johnson missing time.

Chiefs' Nazeeh Johnson: No pads or helmet Sunday
Head coach Andy Reid said Sunday that Johnson did not suit up in pads Sunday after tweaking his right knee, Matt Derrick of ChiefsDigest.com reports.
It's the same knee for which Johnson underwent surgery for a torn ACL in July 2023. Johnson's health during training camp will play a big part in whether he can earn a starting spot at corner, a role that was vacated after the Chiefs traded L'Jarius Sneed to the Titans in March. Johnson played in 11 regular-season games in his rookie campaign in 2022, registering eight tackles (five solo) while playing 96 snaps on special teams.

Chiefs' Nazeeh Johnson: Suiting up for practice
Johnson (knee) participated during the first day of padded practice Friday, PJ Green of Fox4 News Kansas City reports.
Johnson was recovering from a torn ACL as recently as Wednesday, but he now appears to be back at or near full speed. After the Chiefs lost L'Jarius Sneed during free agency, there could be some competition at camp for boundary reps at corner this season.

Chiefs' Nazeeh Johnson: Dealing with knee injury
Johnson is nursing a right knee injury at training camp with Kansas City, Nate Taylor of The Athletic reports.
Johnson missed the entirety of the 2023 season while recovering from a torn ACL in his right knee, and it's unclear if he's dealing with an injury related to that or not. Kansas City will begin its preseason action Aug. 10 against the Jaguars, and the cornerback will set his sights on being ready to go for that contest.

Chiefs' Nazeeh Johnson: Getting first-team reps
Johnson (knee) was spotted working with the Chiefs' first-team defense Wednesday, Sam McDowell of The Kansas City Star reports.
Johnson missed all of Kansas City's 2023 campaign due to a torn ACL, but it now seems as if he's moved past the issue. The 2022 seventh-round pick has played no defensive snaps across his 11 games in the NFL, but with the departure of L'Jarius Sneed this offseason, Johnson could be thrust into the mix as a starting or rotational cornerback for the Chiefs in 2024.

Chiefs' Nazeeh Johnson: Pens ERFA contract
Johnson (knee) signed his contract with the Chiefs as a exclusive rights free agent Tuesday.
Johnson spent the entire 2023 campaign on injured reserve due to a torn ACL. He contributed exclusively on special teams as a rookie back in 2022, and prior to tearing his ACL it was expected that Johnson would get a chance to compete for expanded defensive opportunities. If his recovery concludes without any setbacks, Johnson should pick up where he left off prior to injury.
