Holmes activated, will be in uniform Sunday

NFL.com

The Chiefs announced Saturday they have activated Priest Holmes (http://www.nfl.com/players/priestholmes/profile?id=HOL627237), and he is expected to be in uniform for Sunday’s game at Oakland, the Kansas City Star is reporting.
Holmes, who has been on the reserve, non-football injury list this season, has not played in a game since suffering head and neck injuries from a hit against the Chargers on Oct. 30, 2005. He will be the backup for starter Larry Johnson.
Because of the trade of <A href="http://www.nfl.com/players/michaelbennett/profile?id=BEN384766" _extended="true">Michael Bennett (http://www.nfl.com/players/michaelbennett/profile?id=BEN384766)</A _extended="true"> to Tampa Bay earlier this week, the Chiefs did not have to clear space on the 53-man roster for Holmes.
Johnson has had many huge games against Oakland and the Raiders' defense has been one of the league's worst teams at stopping the run.
The Raiders (2-3) have struggled mightily in the running game no matter who they've faced this season.
Oakland's starting defensive tackles Warren Sapp (http://www.nfl.com/players/warrensapp/profile?id=SAP635685) and <A href="http://www.nfl.com/players/gerardwarren/profile?id=WAR639317" _extended="true">Gerard Warren (http://www.nfl.com/players/gerardwarren/profile?id=WAR639317)</A _extended="true"> are nursing injuries that kept them out of practice most of the week.
The Chiefs have won three of four games after an 0-and-2 start.
Information from the Associated Press was included in this report

If you have three minutes to kill, there is a nice little Chiefs/Raiders (mostly Chiefs) video clip on that page too. On the right side of the page, there is a video area. Underneath it, is a variety of different clips that you can watch. The one that has a picture of D-Bo in front of a Raiders player is 2:55 long. It was quite enjoyable too.

I have been saying all along that he would returen this year. I like being right.

Didn't we have a bet on if he would return this year. If so I know I bet on him returning.

Glad to see him get his chance. CP did something right.
