Kansas City Chiefs LB Tamba Hali (knee) is back practicing with the team, but he is not expected to play in the team’s preseason finale Thursday, Sept. 1, against the Green Bay Packers. With LB Justin Houston sidelined for at least the first six weeks of the regular season, the team is counting heavily on Hali for their pass rush. He hasn’t practiced much during the season, and even hinted during the offseason of becoming a part-time player, perhaps a pass-rush specialist. ‘There’s swelling, there’s pain,’ Hali said Tuesday, Aug. 30. ‘That’s part of it. There’s going to be pain in my knee. I can only worth through it and get to the passer.’
