KANSAS CITY, Mo. -- The Kansas City Chiefs defended their treatment of Alex Smith after he twice had his head slam into the turf in Indianapolis, saying Monday that their quarterback passed concussion tests on the sideline and in the locker room after both of the hits.Chiefs trainer Rick Burkholder also said team physicians and an independent neurologist do not believe that Smith sustained a concussion.Still, he will be evaluated by another neurologist in Kansas City this week before determining whether he can play against Jacksonville on Sunday.Its certainly possible, Burkholder said Monday. Well go through the return-to-play protocol and see where hes at it. But yes, its possible.Smith was hurt initially when he was hit while sliding in the first quarter Sunday, and Nick Foles took over for about a quarter while Smith went through the protocol. He returned to the game and was hit again on a slide in the second half, and thats when the Chiefs decided he would not return.Foles proved to be everything the Chiefs hoped for as a backup. He finished 16 of 22 for 223 yards and two touchdowns without an interception in leading Kansas City to a 30-14 victory.There was some confusion when Smith was ruled out of the game with a concussion.Burkholder said he incorrectly reported the injury designation, and in fact Smith was still going through the protocol the second time when that announcement was made. He also said statements made after the game that Smith sustained a concussion were inaccurate.I was with him on the plane, talked to him last night, hes been in this morning -- hes absolutely asymptomatic, Burkholder said. Hes had a concussion before, missed time. Hes aware of the situation.Smith isnt the only Chiefs player dealing with injury issues.Running back Spencer Ware did not return to the Colts game after sustaining a concussion -- Burkholder said he did not sufficiently pass the same tests that Smith went through. And at this point, it appears unlikely Ware will be available against the Jaguars.That leaves the Chiefs thin at running back because Jamaal Charles, who is trying to come back from ACL surgery, was due to see Dr. James Andrews after experiencing swelling in the knee.Chiefs coach Andy Reid characterized the visit as routine, but there is concern that Charles has not progressed as quickly as anticipated in his recovery. He has only carried the ball 12 times in three games, and was not active against Indianapolis because of the knee.We dont have any information yet, Reid said Monday. Hes been checking with Dr. Andrews, thats the person who did the surgery. This isnt uncommon. Lets just figure it out and go from there.If Ware and Charles are unable to play, Charcandrick West would be their only healthy running back on the active roster. Darrin Reaves and Zac Brooks are available on the practice squad.Meanwhile, offensive lineman Parker Ehinger sprained his knee and did not return against the Colts. If hes unable to play this week, Zach Fulton would pick up where he left off Sunday.One bit of positive news was the progress of outside linebacker Justin Houston, who is coming back from ACL surgery. The star pass rusher returned to practice two weeks ago and has made noteworthy improvement, though it remains uncertain when Houston will be able to play in a game.Reid said it would be a stretch for him to play against Jacksonville.What were going to do is take it like we have been, see how he does this week, Reid said. If he is ready to go, he can go. Ill listen to the docs and talk to Justin and see how hes doing.I can tell you hes made tremendous strides from that first week to last week.---AP NFL website: www.pro32.ap.org and www.twitter.com/AP-NFLCheap Balenciaga Canada .

As the crowd erupted, Davis knocked the ball off the glass and back into his hands. With 1:14 to go in overtime, Davis sixth block also became his 17th rebound. That, along with his 32 points -- which tied a career high -- proved too much for Denver to overcome, and the Pelicans held on for their third straight victory, 111-107 on Sunday night.Kane Williamson said the fourth victory of his captaincy will go down as one of the great Test wins, after New Zealand claimed nine wickets in the final session to seal a 138-run win. A draw had appeared the most likely result for most of day five, and although New Zealand had gone wicketless with the first new ball, they claimed six scalps with the second - Pakistan losing the last four wickets for one run, in the space of 14 balls.Pakistan had also lost Sarfraz Ahmed to a run out shortly before the second new ball was due. The wicket of Sarfraz was a big moment, but I guess when you take nine wickets in a session, they are all pretty big moments, Williamson said. It all happens pretty quickly. With the new ball around the corner, we thought if we could open up an end, and get a new batsman out to face the new ball, we would be in with a slim sniff. The feeling at tea time and now is pretty contrasting. This will go down as a great Test victory. For it to completely flip-turn was something pretty sudden, certainly.Williamson suggested Pakistans collapse had not been spurred by any cataclysmic shifts on strategy on New Zealands part. With the visitors having batted the first four hours of the day without losing a wicket, it was assumed that the Hamilton pitch had lost its sting.That surface was pretty good for batting, Williamson said. That certainly showed when first new ball didnt do a huge amount. They batted very well and we werent able pick up those early wickets. Only thing we could do was stick with it and try and control the game. To get that breakthrough - which took a long time - we did have to stay patient.New Zealand had given themselves 101 overs to bowl Pakistan out, after declaring late on the fourth day. Wiith 369 needed for victory in the fourth innings, Pakistan had also had incentive to attempt the chase, as they were trailing in the series.ddddddddddddIf you look back to yesterday and discussions around declaration in terms of giving the opposition an opportunity to track down the total and play a few shots - that perhaps worked in our favour, Williamson said. It was a big target. To chase it down, you have to play very well. They were getting themselves into a position - nowadays, with T20 cricket, you give yourselves 30 overs and think about what you can chase. That seemed to be how they were taking down the total.Where we were really good in those first two sessions is keeping the run rate down below two. It kept pushing the required rate up a bit higher, and made them go hard a bit earlier. That presented us with a few opportunities. Pakistan are a very good side who know how to bat time, so perhaps we were fortunate to get nine in the last session.The 2-0 victory means New Zealand will now move into the remainder of their seven-Test home summer with some confidence. They had suffered four consecutive Test losses before this series had begun.It was going to be a big challenge coming home from India and a tough series against South Africa. The guys picked themselves up, Williamson said. I suppose we went back to the drawing board with how wed like to play our cricket at home. Sometimes the baggage from previous results can be tough to get past, but the guys were fantastic. They had a couple of days off and they came back fresh, raring to go. Theyre all looking forward to a big home summer. ' ' '
