How much did having a first-round playoff bye help the Kansas City Chiefs? The answer to that question could be seen at practice Tuesday, where safety Eric Berry, running back Spencer Ware and wide receiver Sammy Watkins were all back in action after missing time due to injury.

Berry returned after missing the Week 17 win over the Raiders after the heel injury that caused him to miss the first 13 games of the season became sore. Ware has been out for three games due to a hamstring injury, while Watkins has missed six of the past seven games due to a foot injury. All three players were limited participants in practice Tuesday, and if all goes well throughout the week, they could each be on the field when the Chiefs host the Indianapolis Colts in the Divisional Playoff round on Saturday.

"I’ve seen Sammy and I’ve seen Spence work to get back to where they were at, and hopefully they go out and we have good practices and the doctors clear them to go," Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes said on Sports Radio 810 AM Tuesday. "It would be awesome to have them back out there. If not, the people who have stepped up in their roles have played well and we’re going to have confidence either way."

Having the weekend off also helped other players get in better health for practice this week. One of those players is cornerback Kendall Fuller, who is continuing to improve after hand surgery caused him to miss the Week 16 game against Seattle.

"The bye week definitely helps, just gives us a chance to go out there and get some more rehab," Fuller told reporters Tuesday. "You don’t have the game on Sunday where you can damage it anymore or things like that. So it definitely helps to get in there, get treatment and just get ready for this Saturday."

The Chiefs had one player miss practice on Tuesday in Dorian O'Daniel, who is listed with calf and ankle injuries. The Colts had a number of players listed as non-participants, although they only had a walkthrough on Tuesday, meaning their participation report is an estimate based on if they had a full practice. Of the players listed on their Tuesday participation report, only three -- wide receiver Ryan Grant (toe), defensive end Tyquan Lewis (knee), and defensive back J.J. Wilcox (ankle) were inactive in their Wild Card round win over the Texans last weekend.

Here's a look at the full Tuesday participation reports for each team.
