ST. JOSEPH, Mo. (AP) Pro Bowl safety Eric Berry left the Chiefs' practice for the second time this training camp on Tuesday as he continues to be bothered by tendinitis in his right heel.

Berry missed a few days of practice last week with the heel injury. He eventually returned to workouts but did not play in the Chiefs' preseason opener against Cincinnati.

Chiefs coach Andy Reid said that the team will continue to monitor Berry and rest him as needed, though it's unclear when he'll return. Kansas City plays at Carolina on Sunday.

Defensive end Mike Catapano also left practice with the same illness that has sidelined him for much of training camp. Kicker Ryan Succop remained out with groin inflammation.
