Chiefs, Broncos

Fans of the Kansas City Chiefs likely went to bed last night not knowing if one of their best players would play on Sunday against the Denver Broncos.

Luckily for them, they got some excellent news overnight that should make everyone stop worrying.

Left guard Joe Thuney has missed the last few games with an ankle injury. He last played in Week 11 against the Chargers in what was a thriller.

Now, he is back, and while he was listed as questionable on the injury report, he is expected to play.

Per Adam Schefter, Thuney is expected to play, while Kadarius Toney is not.

This is important because while the Broncos aren't a great football team, their pass rush can be pretty good. We saw the Bengals last week have no trouble with rushing three and dropping eight at times, and the Broncos could do the same.

This is excellent news not only for this game but for this late-season push into the playoffs.
