Overview
- Patrick Mahomes is on injured reserve with a torn ACL, so Gardner Minshew will start as the Chiefs visit Tennessee on Sunday.
- Head coach Andy Reid said several players did not practice Friday, including Rashee Rice, Trent McDuffie, Jawaan Taylor, Leo Chenal, Derrick Nnadi, Tyquan Thornton and Jaylon Moore.
- Tennessee is thin at safety after losses of Mike Brown, Kevin Winston Jr. and Xavier Woods, heightening attention on Travis Kelce and the Chiefs’ tight ends.
