You have officially been Twitter informed.
As some of the tweets above stated, everyone else on the injury report should be available to the Chiefs. This means guys like Anthony Fasano and Donnie Avery are cleared to play. This doesn’t mean all of them will be active but they are all available to the Chiefs if the team when coming up with the active roster for Sunday.
Meanwhile, Arizona will be without running back Andre Ellington, the team’s best running back. Ellington has been the Cardinals’ only serious rushing threat this season, accounting for nearly 70% of the team’s rushing attempts. So far this season he has accumulated 1,065 total yards and five touchdowns.
Given the blow to the running game and the fact the Cardinals are starting a backup quarterback who has led only one touchdown drive in his last 11 quarters of play, this should help the Chiefs on the defensive side of the ball. This is especially the case given KC will be without Allen Bailey this week.
