Ross signed as an undrafted free agent with the Chiefs less than three months ago and will have to wait until next year to hit the field.

Donovan also discussed capping attendance at training camp as the first practice open to the public approaches. He wouldn't give a concrete number but referenced past training camps when 15-20k attendees resulted in a "bad experience."
"It's a balancing act," Donovan said. "That one bad experience is really powerful."

There will be no practice held tomorrow. Training camp will continue July 27 at 9:15 a.m. but will only be open to Chiefs season ticket members.
