The Kansas City Chiefs and Indianapolis Colts have each released their inactive lists ahead of their Week 12 showdown at GEHA Field at Arrowhead Stadium on Sunday.

Despite having two players listed as questionable heading into the game, the Chiefs will have everyone on the 53-man roster available to play, outside of injured RB Isiah Pacheco. They also had one practice squad elevation to account for with their inactive players list. Meanwhile, the Colts are a team getting healthier at the right time after their Week 11 bye.

Chiefs’ inactive players for Week 12

  • RB Isiah Pacheco
  • TE Jared Wiley
  • WR Jalen Royals
  • OL Wanya Morris
  • RB Elijah Mitchell
  • CB Josh Williams

Chiefs LG Kingsley Suamataia has cleared the concussion protocol, and WR Xavier Worthy will be available after dealing with an ankle injury for the past two weeks. Clyde Edwards-Helaire is active for the second time so far this season, with Elijah Mitchell going back to the bench. With Josh Simmons back in action, Wanya Morris is taking a back seat to Jaylon Moore as the swing tackle.

Colts’ inactive players for Week 12

  • CB Jonathan Edwards
  • RB D.J. Giddens
  • S Reuben Lowery III
  • TE Will Mallory
  • T Luke Tenuta

The Colts had a bye week in Week 11, and this list is smaller than the Week 10 inactive list. That’s because they’ve got some new and returning pieces at cornerback in Sauce Gardner and former Chiefs CB Charvarius Ward, which has made Edwards a healthy scratch.
