KANSAS CITY, Mo. -- The Kansas City Chiefs defended their treatment of Alex Smith after he twice had his head slam into the turf in Indianapolis, saying Monday that their quarterback passed concussion tests on the sideline and in the locker room after both of the hits.Chiefs trainer Rick Burkholder also said team physicians and an independent neurologist do not believe that Smith sustained a concussion.Still, he will be evaluated by another neurologist in Kansas City this week before determining whether he can play against Jacksonville on Sunday.Its certainly possible, Burkholder said Monday. Well go through the return-to-play protocol and see where hes at it. But yes, its possible.Smith was hurt initially when he was hit while sliding in the first quarter Sunday, and Nick Foles took over for about a quarter while Smith went through the protocol. He returned to the game and was hit again on a slide in the second half, and thats when the Chiefs decided he would not return.Foles proved to be everything the Chiefs hoped for as a backup. He finished 16 of 22 for 223 yards and two touchdowns without an interception in leading Kansas City to a 30-14 victory.There was some confusion when Smith was ruled out of the game with a concussion.Burkholder said he incorrectly reported the injury designation, and in fact Smith was still going through the protocol the second time when that announcement was made. He also said statements made after the game that Smith sustained a concussion were inaccurate.I was with him on the plane, talked to him last night, hes been in this morning -- hes absolutely asymptomatic, Burkholder said. Hes had a concussion before, missed time. Hes aware of the situation.Smith isnt the only Chiefs player dealing with injury issues.Running back Spencer Ware did not return to the Colts game after sustaining a concussion -- Burkholder said he did not sufficiently pass the same tests that Smith went through. And at this point, it appears unlikely Ware will be available against the Jaguars.That leaves the Chiefs thin at running back because Jamaal Charles, who is trying to come back from ACL surgery, was due to see Dr. James Andrews after experiencing swelling in the knee.Chiefs coach Andy Reid characterized the visit as routine, but there is concern that Charles has not progressed as quickly as anticipated in his recovery. He has only carried the ball 12 times in three games, and was not active against Indianapolis because of the knee.We dont have any information yet, Reid said Monday. Hes been checking with Dr. Andrews, thats the person who did the surgery. This isnt uncommon. Lets just figure it out and go from there.If Ware and Charles are unable to play, Charcandrick West would be their only healthy running back on the active roster. Darrin Reaves and Zac Brooks are available on the practice squad.Meanwhile, offensive lineman Parker Ehinger sprained his knee and did not return against the Colts. If hes unable to play this week, Zach Fulton would pick up where he left off Sunday.One bit of positive news was the progress of outside linebacker Justin Houston, who is coming back from ACL surgery. The star pass rusher returned to practice two weeks ago and has made noteworthy improvement, though it remains uncertain when Houston will be able to play in a game.Reid said it would be a stretch for him to play against Jacksonville.What were going to do is take it like we have been, see how he does this week, Reid said. If he is ready to go, he can go. Ill listen to the docs and talk to Justin and see how hes doing.I can tell you hes made tremendous strides from that first week to last week.---AP NFL website: www.pro32.ap.org and www.twitter.com/AP-NFL Nike Air More Uptempo 96 Rouge .

Nike Air More Uptempo 96 Noir . -- On the field, it was business as usual for Jameis Winston and No. ARLINGTON, Texas -- Playing regularly in left field while getting used to the American League, Tampa Bays Corey Dickerson is settling into one of the best stretches of his career.Dickerson had a three-run homer off Colby Lewis in the Texas right-handers last start before the playoffs, and the Rays beat the Rangers 4-1 Saturday night.The third-inning shot was Dickersons 24th, matching his career high from his first full season with Colorado in 2014. The 27-year-old was traded to the Rays in the offseason after an injury-plagued year that affected his preparation for 2016 as well.Dickerson was on the disabled list three times in his final season with the Rockies, twice with foot injuries and once for broken ribs. Worried about limited offseason training, his averaged bottomed out at .176 in mid-May.But hes hitting .341 since Sept. 6 and has his average at .248, its highest since April. He has 70 RBI, six shy of his 2014 total with the Rockies.I finally felt like I kind of hit rock bottom where I had to just let it go, have fun, Dickerson said. Really just try to be myself, try to be me and know what I do works. Thats what got me here, and thats what had me have good years.Dickerson made 24 of his past 30 starts in left field, and he says that has made it easier in games when he is the DH. Manager Kevin Cash agreed.I think he has a better understanding of the pitching staffs that were facing, Cash said. Weve played a lot of American League East September baseball. So, he saw thhose guys again and hes kind of put that in the memory bank.ddddddddddddRays right-hander Jake Odorizzi (10-6) struck out eight in six innings, giving up the only run on Robinson Chirinos eighth homer in the sixth. He has 10 wins for the second time in his career.Its a cool thing to have double-digit wins, he said. Took the last game of the year to get it, but 10 wins is definitely very, very nice.DICKERSONS DROPAlex Colome pitched around Dickersons dropped fly ball leading off the ninth for his 37th save. Dickerson made two of the catches in the ninth, with the crowd shouting as the ball approached his glove both times.It rolled out of my glove, Dickerson said. I caught it. Used two hands. The spin of the ball just popped it out. That had never happened to me before.SHORT HOPSOdorizzi is undefeated in his last seven road starts. He is 4-0 with a 1.42 ERA in five career starts against the Rangers. ... Dickerson has six homers with two or more runners on, the most for the Rays since Evan Longoria had seven in 2011.TRAINERS ROOMRays: Kiermaier came out of the game with a left calf contusion after pulling up while sprinting toward Chirinos homer in the gap in right center.UP NEXTRays: RHP Chase Whitley (0-0, 1.74 ERA) is set for his first big-league start since May 14, 2015, before he had elbow surgery. That start was for the Yankees against the Rays.
