He received strong praise from\u00a0special teams coordinator Dave Toub,\u00a0offensive coordinator Matt Nagy, and\u00a0even backup QB Carson Wentz\u00a0in the offseason. His entire path to Kansas City thus far has all been about perseverance.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Yeah, just staying resilient,&#8221; Remigio\u00a0told reporters following practice. &#8220;And that&#8217;s really been kind of the moral of my entire journey. Just staying resilient and continuing to punch. You know, I&#8217;ve always been an underdog, every single level of football that I&#8217;ve played at. So, you know, being in this position is nothing new to me. Just making sure that I&#8217;m still fighting, and like I said, being the best version of myself every single day.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>One thing to consider on Nikko Remigio&#8217;s promotion to the active roster is that Hollywood Brown is also waiting in the wings for an injury return designation. Could this signal that Brown isn&#8217;t quite ready to resume practice and come back in the coming weeks? It&#8217;s also worth noting that Hardman will not be eligible to be designated to return from IR until Week 18&#8217;s game against the Broncos.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"chiefs-practice-squad-elevations-for-week-14\">Chiefs practice squad elevations for Week 14<\/h2>\n<p>With the injury to TE Peyton Hendershot, the Chiefs elevated TE Baylor Cupp from the practice squad. That&#8217;s a notable move, given that the Chargers have struggled against 12 and 13 personnel. He could legitimately play 15-20 snaps on offense, in addition to having a role on special teams.\u00a0Kansas City also brought up LB Swayze Bozeman, which will likely be a special teams move to reinforce Dave Toub&#8217;s group.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The\u00a0Kansas City Chiefs\u00a0have several roster moves ahead of the Week 14 game against the\u00a0Los Angeles Chargers\u00a0on &#8220;Sunday Night Football.&#8221;
