Chiefs' Jalen Royals: Sees first pro action in Week 4
Royals accrued zero targets during Sunday's 37-20 win against the Ravens.
Royals didn't accumulate any snaps in any of the first three weeks, but the Chiefs took hold of a sizable lead against the Ravens, enough so that in the second half, the bench players got into the mix. Royals remains buried on the depth chart at this juncture, and there's little reason to anticipate that changing, especially with Rashee Rice's six-game suspension expiring prior to the Week 7 clash with the Raiders.

Chiefs' Jalen Royals: Not involved in Week 3
Royals did not record a single snap in Sunday's 22-9 win over the Giants.
Royals was active for the first time in his rookie season, however, he did not see the field at all in the contest. The rookie wideout has been dealing with knee tendinitis since mid-August, but he was finally healthy enough to suit up in Week 3. Despite this, the coaching staff decided to keep Royals off the field after he practiced for the first time in a month ahead of Week 3. It's plausible to think the 22-year-old will continue to develop and see some usage in the Chiefs passing attack, but the impending returns of Xavier Worthy (shoulder) and Rashee Rice (suspension) likely will make it difficult for Royals to see a consistent role on offense. The Utah State product will look to see his first game action in Week 4 when the Chiefs host the Ravens.

Chiefs' Jalen Royals: Pro debut on tap
Royals (knee) is active for Sunday's game at the Giants, Matt McMullen of the Chiefs' official site reports.
Royals had been dealing with knee tendinitis since mid-August, which delayed the rookie fourth-round pick's pro debut. Now that he's cleared for action, he'll be available to a Chiefs receiving corps that again will be without Xavier Worthy (shoulder). However, it remains to be see how Royals will be incorporated in a healthy group that includes Hollywood Brown, Tyquan Thornton, JuJu Smith-Schuster, Jason Brownlee and Nikko Remigio.

Chiefs' Jalen Royals: NFL debut in Week 3?
Royals (knee) is listed as questionable ahead of Sunday's matchup against the Giants.
Despite practicing in full both Thursday and Friday, Royals is still questionable to play in Sunday's contest. The 2025 fourth-round pick from Utah State has yet to make his NFL debut after posting 126 receptions for 1,914 yards and 21 touchdowns over his final two seasons in college. If Royals is able to take the field in Week 3, he'll likely play a depth role in the Chiefs' wide receiver corps.

Chiefs' Jalen Royals: Upgrades to full practice
Royals (knee) was a full participant in Thursday's practice, Matt McMullen of the Chiefs' official site reports.
Royals' knee injury kept him sidelined for Kansas City's first two games of the regular season, but he looks ready to take the field Sunday night on the road against the Giants. The rookie fourth-round pick will bolster a receiving corps that may also return Xavier Worthy (shoulder) in Week 3.

Chiefs' Jalen Royals: Officially limited Wednesday
Royals (knee) was a limited participant in Wednesday's practice.
Royals is practicing for the first time since having missed Kansas City's first two games of the regular season due to knee tendinitis, so to see him handling even limited reps is encouraging. The rookie fourth-round pick will work to continue progressing at practice and gain clearance in time to suit up Sunday night on the road against the Giants.

Chiefs' Jalen Royals: Set to work at practice Wednesday
Coach Andy Reid said that Royals (knee) is in line to practice Wednesday, Matt McMullen of the Chiefs' official site reports.
Royals, who has been managing knee tendinitis, is thus moving toward a potential return to action after missing the Chiefs' first two regular-season games. Once available, the 2025 fourth-rounder figures to compete with Tyquan Thornton and JuJu Smith-Schuster for WR snaps that don't go to Xavier Worthy (shoulder) and Hollywood Brown.

Chiefs' Jalen Royals: Pro debut delayed again
Royals (knee) has been ruled out for Sunday's contest against the Eagles.
Royals thus will push back his pro debut one more week due to the knee tendinitis that has bothered him since at least Aug. 18. He has yet to practice this season, so until he does he likely won't be a candidate to suit up on game days. No. 1 WR Xavier Worthy is tending to a dislocated right shoulder that he suffered Week 1, so even if he's available whenever Royals is able to suit up, the former may not be operating at full capacity, thereby opening up snaps and targets for the rest of the Chiefs' receiving corps.

Chiefs' Jalen Royals: No practice Friday
Royals (knee) was a non-participant at Friday's practice, Matt McMullen of the Chiefs' official site reports.
Royals has been tending to knee tendinitis since at least Aug. 18 and hasn't been able to practice in any capacity in the meantime, delaying the rookie fourth-round pick's pro debut. It's unclear if he has any chance to suit up Sunday versus the Eagles, but Friday's injury report may provide clarity on that front.

Chiefs' Jalen Royals: Sits out practice again
Royals (knee) will not practice Thursday, Matt McMullen of the Chiefs' official site reports.
Royals hasn't yet practiced in any capacity during the regular season, though head coach Andy Reid said Wednesday that the rookie wideout has been progressing. He was inactive Week 1 and appears to be trending in the wrong direction for Sunday's matchup against the Eagles.

Chiefs' Jalen Royals: Still not practicing
Royals (knee) won't practice Wednesday, Matt McMullen of the Chiefs' official site reports.
Coach Andy Reid noted that Royals -- who was inactive Week 1 -- is doing better and making progress but acknowledged that at this stage it's too early to know if the wideout will be able to play Sunday against the Eagles, Matt Derrick of ChiefsDigest.com reports. For now, Hollywood Brown, JuJu Smith-Schuster and Tyquan Thornton are Kansas City's top healthy/available WRs.
