Cleared for Monday Night Football
Thornhill (calf) is active for Monday's matchup against the Steelers.
Analysis: Thornhill missed the season opener due to a calf injury and was listed as questionable for Week 2. The 2019 second-round pick will be available to make his Browns debut Monday night, but it's unclear how big of a role he'll have right away. However, eventually, Thornhill should take over as a full-time starter.

Gets questionable tag
Thornhill (calf) is listed as questionable for Monday's matchup with the Steelers, Zac Jackson of The Athletic reports.
Analysis: Thornhill is in danger of missing his second straight game to start the season. If he is is ultimately unable to go, Rodney McLeod would presumably be in line to fill in at free safety.

Still recovering from injury
Thornhill (calf) did not practice Thursday, Scott Petrak of the Elyria Chronicle-Telegram reports.
Analysis: Thornhill is being considered day-to-day, according to head coach Kevin Stefanski. The Virginia product was unable to play Week 1 against the Bengals; however, it sounds like he may be able to return to the practice field soon. Even if he does, though, the fourth-year pro may still not be ready to suit up Monday against the Steelers.

Inactive against Bengals
Thornill (calf) is inactive Week 1 against the Bengals.
Analysis: Thornhill was able to get through morning workouts Sunday, but the team decided his calf injury needed more time to heal. Per Zac Jackson of The Athletic, Rodney McLeod will get the starting nod at free safety in Thornhill's stead.

Questionable for Week 1
Thornhill (calf) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Bengals, Mary Kay Cabot of The Cleveland Plain Dealer reports.
Analysis: Thornhill was limited Wednesday before missing practice Thursday, so he sounds truly questionable to be out there for Week 1. Rodney McLeod would be next up at safety alongside Grant Delpit if Thornhill can't play.

Inks deal with Cleveland
The Browns agreed to terms with Thornhill on a three-year contract Wednesday, Mary Kay Cabot of The Cleveland Plain Dealer reports.
Analysis: Thornhill will change locales coming off his career-best campaign with the Chiefs in 2022, during which he logged 71 tackles, nine pass breakups, three interceptions and a sack over 16 regular-season games. In Cleveland, Thornhill is expected to immediately step in as the Browns' starting free safety alongside Grant Delpit, as the team also transitions to new defensive coordinator Jim Schwartz this coming season.

Career-high output in 2022
Thornhill registered a career-best 71 tackles (43 solo), three interceptions and a sack over 16 games during the 2022 regular season.
Analysis: Aside from a slight downturn in his second season, Thornhill has churned out consistent campaigns on the back end of Kansas City's defense throughout his rookie contract. However, he's scheduled to hit free agency this offseason, so the Chiefs' brass will need to decide whether they want to keep him in town or allow him to explore free agency. The Chiefs have some wiggle room from a cap standpoint and not a ton of starters set to hit free agency this season, so the team could make a run at…read more

Makes all-around impact Week 14
Thornhill posted seven tackles (five solo), including one sack, and a pass defended in Sunday's 34-28 victory over the Broncos.
Analysis: Thornhill contributed one of his team' six sacks in this impressive outing for the Kansas City defense. The fourth-year safety also logged two more tackles against Denver quarterback Russell Wilson, who was forced out with a concussion early in the fourth quarter. Thornhill has now played every defensive snap since returning from his one-game hiatus due to a calf injury, totaling 17 tackles over these two contests. Expect him to continue slotting in as one of the Chiefs' top defenders Week 15…read more

Posts 10 stops in return
Thornhill compiled 10 tackles (six solo) in Sunday's 27-24 defeat against the Bengals.
Analysis: Thornhill returned to his every-down role following a one-game absence with a calf injury. As a result, the safety finished with the Chiefs' second-most tackles behind prolific linebacker Nick Bolton (16). Thornhill also had what would have been his second interception of the season wiped away due to a defensive pass interference penalty by cornerback Trent McDuffie on the opening series of the game. Nevertheless, Thornhill still ranks second on the team in passes defended (six) this season,…read more

Back at practice Wednesday
Thornhill (calf) was a full participant at practice Wednesday ahead of Sunday's game at Cincinnati.
Analysis: Thornhill missed his first game of the 2022 season in Week 12 versus the Rams, but he now appears to be trending toward returning in Week 13. Kansas City's secondary will have a tough task ahead of them Sunday, lining up opposite Ja'Marr Chase (hip) and Tee Higgins.

Missing first game of the year
Thornhill is listed as inactive for Sunday's game against the Rams due to a calf injury.
Analysis: Thornhill sustained a calf injury during the Chiefs' Week 11 matchup versus the Chargers, ultimately leading to limited sessions on both Wednesday and Thursday, followed by no activity in Friday's practice. With the 27-year-old sidelined this weekend, expect Bryan Cook to operate as one of the team's starting safeties alongside Justin Reid.

Questionable for Sunday vs. Rams
Thornhill (calf) did not participate at practice Friday and is listed as questionable for Sunday's game vs. the Rams.
Analysis: Limited practices Wednesday and Thursday would have seemed to have indicated that Thornhill was on track to play in Week 12, but his absence Friday casts a thick shadow over that proposition. Should Thornhill miss his first game of the 2022 season Sunday, rookie second-rounder Bryan Cook would likely be in line to start alongside Justin Reid at safety.

Won't return Sunday
Thornhill has been ruled out for the remainder of Sunday's game against the Chargers due to a calf injury.
Analysis: Thornhill recorded three tackles (one solo) in the first half of Sunday's matchup but was ruled out shortly after halftime. Deon Bush will likely see increased work for Kansas City down the stretch, while it's not yet clear whether Thornhill will be available for next Sunday's game against the Rams.

Career-best outing in Sunday's win
Thornhill recorded 11 tackles (nine solo), one interception and two passes defensed during Sunday's 44-23 win over the 49ers.
Analysis: Thornhill set a new career high with 11 tackles in Sunday's matchup versus the 49ers, while he also snatched his first interception of the season in the contest. Additionally, the 27-year-old was the only Chiefs' player to play 100 percent of the team's defensive snaps. Thornhill now enters Kansas City's bye week with full momentum, and he'll attempt to replicate a similar performance in Week 9 against the Titans.

Notches first INT of 2021
Thornhill recorded six tackles (four solo) and his first interception of the season Sunday versus the Broncos.
Analysis: Thornhill's rookie season drew some buzz thanks to a trio of interceptions and a promising tackle total (58). While he has just one interception in each of the last two seasons -- 2021 still has some time for him to add to it -- Thornhill seems to be trending up in his tackle count. If he maintains his current pace, the third-year safety would finish out the season with a career-best of about 64 tackles.

Records nine tackles
Thornhill had nine tackles (seven solo) during Sunday's 27-3 loss at Tennessee.
Analysis: Thornhill made his second consecutive start at free safety in the blowout loss, and he's played all but three defensive snaps between the two contests. The 26-year-old had strong production Sunday but is unlikely to be an IDP option going forward.

Moving into starting role
The Chiefs plan to start Thornhill at free safety in Sunday's game in Washington ahead of Daniel Sorensen, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.
Analysis: Perhaps no player in the Chiefs' much-maligned defense has struggled as much as Sorensen, who Pro Football Focus ranks as its 83rd safety among the 85 players at the position who have played 100-plus snaps this season. In addition to missing nine tackles -- 20.5 percent of his overall opportunities, per Pro Football Reference -- Sorensen has also been responsible for a 153.8 passer rating when targeted in coverage this season. The Chiefs are hoping that Thornhill can provide an upgrade at the…read more

Recovered from groin injury
Thornhill (groin) wasn't listed on Wednesday's injury report.
Analysis: Thornhill's full participation in practice Wednesday indicates that he's no longer bothered by the groin injury he sustained in early August. With fellow safety Tyrann Mathieu's (illness) status for Sunday's season opener against the Browns in doubt, Thornhill regaining full health has become an even more important development for the Chiefs.

Suffers groin injury
Thornhill (groin) was injured during Monday's practice, Nate Taylor of The Athletic reports.
Analysis: The severity of Thornhill's injury remains undisclosed. The Chiefs are counting on the third-year pro to start across from Tyrann Mathieu, so it may make sense to take a cautious approach to his recovery.

First interception of season
Thornhill recorded six tackles, all solo, and an interception across 73 defensive snaps in Monday's win over the Patriots.
Analysis: Thornhill secured his first interception of the season off Brian Hoyer late in the first quarter. The second-year pro has now played in 89 percent of the defensive snaps this season, recording 17 tackles in the process.

Leads Chiefs' Week 3 tackle count
Thornhill topped the Chiefs' defense with six tackles (five solo) Monday against the Ravens.
Analysis: Although he hasn't quite put up the numbers to suggest a repeat of his rookie season, Thornhill and Tyrann Mathieu were the only two players to play every defensive snap Monday. He should continue to see consistent action at safety moving forward, but his numbers haven't put him on too many IDP radars just yet.

Cleared for full contact
Thornhill (knee) has been cleared for full-contact participation in practice, Nate Taylor of The Athletic reports.
Analysis: Thornhill's recovery from a torn ACL has been a swift one, as he suffered the injury in Week 17 of last season. He's reportedly looked as explosive as ever since retaking the field and should be in line to retake his spot as the team's starting safety alongside Tyrann Mathieu come Week 1.

Logs limited activity
Thornhill (knee) was a limited participant in Wednesday's practice.
Analysis: Thornhill came off the active/PUP list Wednesday after passing his physical, so it's no surprise to see him being eased back into the mix. The 24-year-old is coming off an impressive rookie season, and he'll be well positioned to serve as the Chiefs' top free safety once he fully moves past the ACL he tore in the 2019 regular-season finale.

Comes off PUP list
The Chiefs activated Thornhill (knee) from the active/PUP list Wednesday after he passed a physical, Aaron Wilson of the Houston Chronicle reports.
Analysis: Thornhill's rookie season came to an end when he suffered a torn ACL in his left knee Week 17, causing the 2019 second-rounder to miss the Chiefs' Super Bowl run. He's made significant progress in his rehab, though, and appears ready to partake in practice in some capacity. Thornhill's status for the Chiefs' Week 1 matchup with the Texans remains undecided, but if he's able to suit up, he likely will serve as the team's starting free safety.

Placed on PUP list
The Texans placed Thornhill (knee) on the PUP list Friday, Mike Garafolo of NFL Network reports.
Analysis: Thornhill missed the Chiefs' Super Bowl run after tearing the ACL in his left knee Week 17. There's some hope he'll be healthy by the regular season, but he has yet to recover enough to avoid Friday's move. When he does achieve full health -- or at least enough to get back on the field -- the 2019 second-round pick will man free safety for Kansas City.

On track for training camp
Thornhill (knee) is expected to be healthy in time for the start of training camp, Sam McDowell of The Kansas City Star reports.
Analysis: The 24-year-old suffered a torn ACL in his left knee during the regular-season finale, but he appears to be progressing well in his recovery. Thornhill could still be eased into action early on, but there's no indication his status for the start of the season will be in question.

Expected back for Week 1
The Chiefs expect Thornhill (knee) to be ready for the 2020 regular-season opener, James Palmer of NFL Network reports.
Analysis: Thornhill is rehabbing a torn ACL sustained during Kansas City's 2019 regular-season finale, and it looks as though the expectation is for him to make a return for at least part of training camp or the preseason. The 24-year-old was a full-time starter as a rookie, finishing with 58 tackles (42 solo), five pass breakups, three interceptions and a touchdown.

Moves to injured reserve
Thornhill (knee) was placed on injured reserve Tuesday, Herbie Teope of The Kansas City Star reports.
Analysis: Thornhill suffered a torn ACL in the regular-season finale, so the move to injured reserve was simply a matter of time. In Thornhill's absence, Armani Watts figures to see increased work after seeing his highest snap total of the season Week 17.

Torn ACL confirmed
Coach Andy Reid said Monday that Thornhill suffered a torn left ACL during Week 17's regular-season finale against the Chargers, Nate Taylor of The Athletic reports.
Analysis: Thornhill has played a starting role at free safety since Week 1, so his season-ending injury will be a notable blow to Kansas City's secondary heading into the playoffs. In the rookie second-round pick's stead, Daniel Sorensen will likely slot into the starting lineup. Thornhill will set his sights on recovery, though the timing of his injury sheds some doubt on his chances of returning to full health for the start of the 2020 season.

Serious injury feared
Thornhill will have an MRI on Monday to determine the severity of a knee injury that forced him out of Sunday's win against the Chiefs, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.
Analysis: The Chiefs fear Thornhill's injury could be serious enough to keep the rookie second-round pick out for the playoffs. The Virginia product has been a starter at free safety since Week 1, and he's recorded 58 tackles, five pass breakups and three interceptions. The results of the MRI will be available at some point Monday, and Daniel Sorensen is next in line to start if Thornhill is indeed ruled out.

Done for day
Thornhill (knee) is out for the remainder of Sunday's game against the Chargers.
Analysis: The fact that Thornhill was immediately downgraded to out is not a good sign for the injury, especially considering he exited early in the second quarter. With the Virginia product sidelined, look for Daniel Sorensen to take over as the team's starting free safety. More information regarding Thornhill's injury should arise heading into the playoffs.
