Maclin did not practice Thursday due to a personal matter, Terez A. Paylor of the Kansas City Star reports.
EDGE Analysis
Per the report, the Chiefs relayed that Maclin is fully healthy, with Paylor adding that Maclin will likely practice Friday and be ready for Sunday's contest against Texans. We'll revisit the wideout's Week 2 status no later than Friday afternoon, once the Chiefs' final injury report of the week is released.

Maclin (head) returned to Sunday's game against the Chargers, finishing with five catches for 63 yards and one touchdown.
EDGE Analysis
Maclin was quiet for large portions of the contest but made an impact in two of the Chiefs' last three drives of regulation. On their second possession of the fourth quarter, he culminated a 56-yard drive with back-to-back grabs, including a 19-yard touchdown. Later, in the home team's game-tying drive, he absorbed a a vicious hit from Jahleel Addae at the conclusion of a 22-yard reception, his seventh and final target of the day. Maclin was promptly tested for a concussion, but his return in overtime indicates that he passed through the NFL's initial testing period for head injuries.

Maclin left Sunday's game against the Chargers to be evaluated for a concussion, Terez Paylor of the Kansas City Star reports.
EDGE Analysis
During the Chiefs' two-minute drill that resulted in a game-tying Spencer Ware touchdown run, Maclin was hammered by Jahleel Addae at the end of a 22-yard reception. A hit to the head was the impetus for administering concussion tests, but the precise diagnosis awaits as the two sides enter overtime.

Maclin caught five of his seven targets for 44 yards while playing the first half in Saturday's preseason win over the Bears.
EDGE Analysis
Maclin's receptions all went for 10 yards or fewer, which is to be expected with accurate game manager Alex Smith throwing him the ball. The former Eagle is far and away Kansas City's top outside threat, and should continue to see a high volume of targets when the games start counting.

Maclin (groin) returned to practice Thursday, BJ Kissel of Chiefs.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
Maclin was held out of action Wednesday, but was back with his teammates on the practice field the following day, suggesting any ailment wasn't overly serious. That being said, it wouldn't be surprising to see the Chiefs hold him out of Saturday's preseason matchup in Los Angeles as a precaution.

Maclin is considered day-to-day with a groin injury, BJ Kissel of Chiefs.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
The injury presumably clouds Maclin's status for Saturday's preseason game against the Rams, though for now this doesn't sound like something that's expected to linger. Maclin remains entrenched as the Chiefs' No. 1 wideout, while Albert Wilson is listed as the team's other starter at the position, with Chris Conley and Frankie Hammond listed as second-teamers and the likes of rookie Tyreek Hill, Rod Streater and De'Anthony Thomas also in the mix.

Maclin hauled in his lone target for 20 yards in Saturday's preseason opener against the Seahawks.
EDGE Analysis
Maclin should once again emerge as Alex Smith's top wide receiver after totaling 1,088 yards and eight scores in his first season with the Chiefs. Expect the 28-year-old to be eased in this preseason due to his defined role.

Maclin collided with teammate Steven Nelson during a 1-on-1 drill in Wednesday's practice and stayed on the ground in pain for a while but eventually stood up and rejoined practice for 11-on-11 drills, the Kansas City Star reports.
EDGE Analysis
Fortunately, it appears nothing serious came of the injury, but Maclin's status should be monitored in the next couple days to ensure nothing surfaces. Barring a major injury, the star wideout should be fine for the start of the regular season.

Maclin was removed from Thursday's practice due to a minor ankle injury, Kansas City Star reports. "He just tweaked his ankle a little bit," head coach Andy Reid said. "He's OK. No problem."
EDGE Analysis
After kicking off OTAs on Tuesday, the Chiefs were unable to emerge from the week without an ailment afflicting one of their offensive mainstays. For what it's worth, Maclin was able to walk off the field without assistance, so Reid's lack of concern is likely warranted. Nevertheless, Maclin did suffer a high right-ankle sprain in January's wild-card win against the Texans, yet still played in the divisional round against the Patriots, meaning his progress through the current issue will be of interest as the offseason program continues.
