Burkholder indicated Berry, as well as his teammates, had a physical examination in June that includes a chest X-ray and blood work. "Everything checked out then," Burkholder said. "I've obviously been with him a lot this season and he didn't complain about anything until the [Oakland] ball game."

"I am truly thankful for all of the support from family, friends, coaches, teammates and the entire Chiefs kingdom," he said in the statement. "At first I was in shock with the diagnosis on Saturday and did not even want to miss a game, but I understand that right now I have to concentrate on a new opponent. "I have great confidence in the doctors and the plan they are going to put in place for me to win this fight. I believe that I am in God's hands and I have great peace in that. "I know my coaches and teammates will hold things down here the rest of the season and until I am back running out of the tunnel at Arrowhead. I am so thankful and appreciative of being a part of this franchise and playing in front of the best fans in the NFL. I will be back!"
