After first referring to it a simple ankle sprain, the Chiefs are now calling the injury Larry Johnson suffered in Week 9 a mid-foot sprain. The team expects to know the injury's exact extent on Tuesday.

"They're running some more tests," coach Herm Edwards said late Monday. "He came in to get treatment, but they took an MRI and they're still studying it." Foot sprains can be multiple-week injuries, but this diagnosis would be better than a break. Priest Holmes is likely to start in Week 10 vs. Denver.

Never good hearing foot sprain. I always think Lisfranc, and thats NEVER good.

Some fantasy input:

Chiefs coach Herm Edwards says he doesn't "see Priest (Holmes) carrying the ball more than 15 times" if Larry Johnson is out in Week 10.

It appears rookie Kolby Smith will have to take the diapers off and play a key role against the Broncos. While 15 carries and a few catches would be plenty for Priest to be an elite flex and borderline RB2 play, Smith will be counted on. "We've got to do it by committee a little bit," Edwards said.
