Owens (knee) is still sidelined with a knee injury and missed Monday's workout, the team's official site reports. Owens suffered a strained LCL and a bone bruise in the Week 5 game against the 49ers. It was thought he could return this week against the Chargers, but his participation in practice this week or lack thereof should shed light on the situation.

Owens suffered a lateral collateral ligament and a bone bruise Sunday against the 49ers, the Kansas City Star reports. Owens was reportedly sore Monday according to coach Andy Reid, but it will be a wait-and-see approach with him. The Chiefs are on a bye in Week 6, so it's possible he will be able to return for the team's next game against the Chargers on Oct. 19.

Chiefs signed CB Chris Owens, formerly of the Dolphins. Owens appeared in just one game last year due to injuries and is strictly a depth signing. He has experience in the slot and will give the Chiefs a veteran backup corner. Owen, 27, has been on three different teams over the last two seasons and isn't guaranteed a roster spot.

Free agent CB Chris Owens visited the Steelers. With all the top corners off the market, Owens is making the rounds as an experienced backup. He visited Tampa earlier this week.

Free agent CB Chris Owens will visit the Bucs. The Falcons' former slot corner was released mid-season by the Browns, finishing out the year with the Dolphins. He'd be a depth signing for a Bucs team loading up on veterans.

Dolphins claimed CB Chris Owens off waivers from the Browns. The Browns cut Owens from injured reserve after he recovered from an in-season knee injury. He's best suited to man the slot but will purely be depth for the Dolphins. CB Justin Rogers was waived to make room for Owens in Miami.

Browns released CB Chris Owens and WR Armanti Edwards from injured reserve. A knee injury ended Owens' season earlier this month. The Falcons' former slot corner, Owens played just one snap on defense for the Browns. A colossal bust as a return man, Edwards is likely near the end of his NFL career.

Browns placed CB Chris Owens on injured reserve with a knee injury, ending his season. A reserve cornerback, Owens ends 2013 with only one defensive snap to his name. The Falcons' former (ineffective) nickel back, Owens was playing on a one-year deal. Owens is still only 27, but is going to have trouble finding a new home next season, particularly if his injury is serious.

The Elyria Chronicle-Telegram reports Chris Owens has the "early edge" on Buster Skrine for the Browns' right cornerback job. Owens has received the bulk of the first-team reps opposite LCB Joe Haden since spring practices, but he's predominantly been a nickel corner since entering the league. Third-round rookie Leon McFadden is no longer considered a candidate to start due to multiple missed practices with a groin pull. The true competition begins tonight when the Browns host the Rams in their preseason opener.

The Akron Beacon-Journal reports that CB Chris Owens is a candidate for the starting job opposite Joe Haden. Owens has been playing with the first-team defense over the last three weeks and is "practicing like a man determined to take the next step in his career." A nickel corner with the Falcons last year, Owens could be asked to start on the outside if Leon McFadden struggles in training camp.
