Berry sprained his ankle in the 24-17 loss to the Broncos early and has been unable to practice through the pain so he won’t be on the field as the Chiefs look to pick up their first win of the season and avoid an 0-3 start which would put serious damage to their hopes of a second straight playoff appearance.
