The Kansas City Chiefs are making their last minute preparations for facing the Detroit Lions Sunday.
Now we’ve got confirmation that WR Jonathan Baldwin is not part of those plans.
As expected, the first year WR is listed as “out” on the team’s injury report. The good news is that Baldwin is the only player on the injury report. That means the Chiefs should be at full strength on Sunday, minus starters Eric Berry and Tony Moeaki of course.
Detroit is a little more banged up.

S | Louis Delmas | Hip | DNP | DNP | LP | Questionable |
DT | Nick Fairley | Foot | DNP | DNP | DNP | Out |
T | Jason Fox | Foot | DNP | DNP | DNP | Out |
WR | Calvin Johnson | Ankle | DNP | DNP | LP | Questionable |
DE | Kyle Vanden Bosch | Not Injury Related | DNP | Not Listed | Not Listed | Not Listed |
CB | Alphonso Smith | Foot | LP | LP | LP | Out |
WR | Maurice Stovall | Hand | LP | LP | LP | Questionable |
The big one here is obviously WR Calvin Johnson. Though Johnson is expected to play, it sure would be nice to see him on the sidelines when the Lions offense is on the field. Fairley being out is a plus. It should help the KC offensive line focus on stopping Mr. Suh.
