Chiefs defense remains a work in progress as camp rolls on

Day 8 at Chiefs camp was a light walkthrough after three padded days, with coach Steve Spagnuolo saying the defense still has a long way to go in physicality and continuity. Rookie Mansoor Delane is limited in a non-contact jersey due to a shoulder issue, and Peter Woods is still getting up to speed, though both are getting reps as Week 1 approaches. Spagnuolo stressed the need for more violent play and live snaps in the preseason, noted leadership gaps in the secondary, but praised Felix Anudike-Uzomah’s health and progress. Alohi and Trent McDuffie are expected to help steady the backfield as practice returns in pads Friday at 9:15 a.m. ahead of the Broncos matchup.
