The good news is that Thornton’s ankle was successfully put back into place by team doctors, and he was able to take the plane home with his teammates. He will have a full evaluation on Monday morning and is expected to seek a second opinion. Rapoport adds that Thornton is in good spirits. Rashee Rice also notably injured his hamstring today. Per The Athletic’s Mike Silver, the Chiefs have already contacted Tyreek Hill’s (knee) agent to discuss a reunion. The Chiefs are looking for help in their wide receiver room.
