Eric Berry on track for December return

https://www.cbssports.com/nfl/news/e...efensive-help/

Quote:
The Kansas City Chiefs have become a Super Bowl favorite despite a leaky defense, but sources maintained that significant help is on the way. Safety Eric Berry, a former Defensive Player of the Year candidate and one of the most loved and respected members of that organization, continued to make strides from a long-term heel injury, and could be back as soon as after Kansas City's Week 12 bye, sources said.

Berry will not play in Monday's clash with the Rams – one of the most anticipated games of the season – and has yet to practice, but the team made a point to take every precaution with the playmaker and has been eyeing the weeks following the bye to implement him back into the lineup. It's expected Berry would begin practicing after the bye, with a return in Week 13 or 14 likely at this point.

The Chiefs secondary has been a major concern this season, with the offense carrying a heavy scoring burden in leading the team to the top of the AFC standings. The recent return of pass rusher Justin Houston has boosted the front seven, and getting Berry back before the playoffs could be another considerable addition.

Berry tore his Achilles tendon in the first game of the 2017 season and has been absent since. He has dealt with heel and foot complications from the injury and overcome several hurdles in his recovery to reach the point where the team feels very positive about his return. Berry provided inspiration, leadership and dominance in his return to the Chiefs in 2016 after overcoming cancer, and the players and coaches eagerly await his upcoming 2018 debut.

Eric Berry transitions back into his starting role throughout December ahead of the playoffs, knocking off rust, getting back in shape for a run. He helps the Chiefs dominate their way to the Super Bowl, where....

In his home town of Atlanta, whether it be against the Saints, Rams, or whoever, Berry makes that one game changing play that ultimately wins the Chiefs their first championship since 1970. He's that type of player to do it, and we've seen it before. It would be poetic justice, a true storybook ending. All of the frustration and confusion of this saga becomes worth it. Berry fulfills his destiny and cements his legacy in Kansas City.
This isn't just our dream scenario, it's what Berry and the Chiefs want at this point too. The only reason to bring Berry back right now instead of like week 15 or 16 is to help us get the 1 seed.

If we get it without him and he is in shape for the playoffs, there is/was zero loss in letting him wait.

With Berry coming back and Houston healthy we should just go ahead and bring DJ back onto the roster. We're getting the band back together!

That gives him 5 games to get into game shape before the playoffs.

It just doesn’t feel right, especially after what happened last year.

I want him to do well, but I have a bad feeling he’ll get an injury in his first few games back. Hope I’m dead wrong, but his heel just doesn’t seem to be right. I think he needs surgery.

Agreed, as much as I want to believe he will swoop in and save the day... it just somehow seems doomed, like he either wont be close to the same or he'll wind up injured again before we even get to the playoffs

My first instinct is that he's good for two games, no more, no less. I also believe that he's starting to push to come back, whether doctor-approved or not.

Yeah, he surely wants to be involved in the playoff run... I'm just not sure he makes it
