Chiefs' Mansoor Delane: Practices in full Wednesday
Rotowire
Delane (shoulder) was a full participant at practice Wednesday.
Delane left Monday's win versus the Broncos early after injuring his shoulder, but it looks like that will be the extent of his absence. He intercepted a pass on his third regular-season snap as a pro in Week 1, and he'll be looking to keep the momentum up Sunday versus the Colts.

Chiefs' Mansoor Delane: Should return soon
Rotowire
Delane (shoulder) should only miss minimal time as he recovers from the injury he suffered in Monday's 31-10 win over the Broncos, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reported Tuesday.
Delane picked off Bo Nix on Denver's opening drive. The cornerback's "Welcome to the NFL" moment was kinder than most, but it quickly flipped the other way as he was forced out of the game early with a shoulder issue. If the first-round rookie cannot heal enough to suit up for Sunday's game against the Colts, Nohl Williams and Kristian Fulton will likely start at outside cornerback for the Chiefs.

Delane (shoulder) is wearing a non-contact yellow jersey during training camp practices, Matt Derrick of ChiefsDigest.com reports.
Delane was forced to miss multiple minicamp practices while tending to a shoulder injury that has lingered into training camp and limited the rookie first-rounder to non-contact drills. It's unclear whether the LSU product will be available to play in the preseason, with the Chiefs' first exhibition game taking place Saturday, Aug. 15, against the Rams. Delane is projected to start opposite L'Jarius Sneed at outside corner, with Kristian Fulton, Kaiir Elam and Nohl Williams providing depth at the position.
