Kansas City Chiefs running back Spencer Ware passed the NFL’s concussion protocol and was cleared to practice Wednesday, according to The Kansas City Star’s Terez A. Paylor<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Ware suffered the concussion in a 30-14 victory over the Indianapolis Colts in Week 8. He missed last week’s game against the Jacksonville Jaguars. Charcandrick West took his place, rushing for 52 yards on 14 carries in a 19-14 win to extend Kansas City’s winning streak to four games.<\/p>\n

With Jamaal Charles injured for most of this season, Ware has been the team’s leading rusher with 511 yards and two touchdowns on 102 carries.<\/p>\n

The Chiefs travel to visit the Carolina Panthers on Sunday, and it could be a big boost to have Ware available. The third-ranked Panthers rush defense is holding opponents to 77.5 rushing yards per game.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
