I'm not reading anything that's clearly stating that Bray is having a good camp. He's had some nice completions but he's also thrown at least 2 INT's in every practice session.
Andy Reid doesn't like turnovers.

From my perspective, and I've said this since Training Camp began, they're allowing Bray to play himself into or out of a roster spot. This is year four for him and it's probably time to shit or get off the pot.
NFL teams can face serious fines for "stashing" healthy players on IR and unless Hogan is legitimately injured, (as Bray has been with injuries and a torn ACL), I don't think they risk putting him on waivers. There seems to be a general consensus among the reporters covering the Chiefs that Hogan has ideal size, a plus arm, nice touch and accuracy, along with great knowledge of the offense. It's too soon to predict if he'll become a starter but he certainly has all of the qualities necessary for a backup position.

Charles is in camp but like Houston and Hali, he's not participating. He's 29 years old and about 10 months into ACL rehab. It's been pointed out that the rehab process can take 6-12 months and if it's truly 12 months for Charles, that puts him on the PUP timeline and available after the Bye Week.
Unlike the OLB position, the Chiefs don't have better than average players like West and Ware (and possibly, Reaves), so I see no reason to rush him back to the field.
