Offensive lineman Ben Grubbs was held out of workouts as the Chiefs returned to practice Monday.

Grubbs suffered a neck injury in the Oct. 25 victory over the Steelers and didn’t play in the Chiefs’ triumph over the Lions in London last week.

Chiefs Coach Andy Reid said Grubbs will undergo an MRI. Against the Lions, Jeff Allen moved from right tackle to left guard, and Jah Reid started at right tackle. It was the Chiefs’ fifth different starting line in eight weeks.

Defensive lineman Mike DeVito and linebacker Ramik Wilson, who have each missed the last two games with injuries, practiced on Monday.
