Chiefs Injury Report and Inactives Tonight
Isiah Pacheco (ankle, toe) is officially questionable to play for Sunday's game as the running back logged a limited practice on Friday after not doing so at all earlier this week. The same goes for linebacker Willie Gay (neck) and wide receiver Kadarius Toney (hip) as the two are listed as questionable. Gay was seen practicing in a limited capacity throughout the week but did not practice on Friday. Toney was limited every day this week.
Wide receivers Rashee Rice (hamstring) and Marquez Valdes-Scantling (oblique) were limited throughout the week, but are both expected to play after not being listed on the final injury report for Sunday's game.
Unfortunately, Kansas City did rule out Joe Thuney (pectoral), Derrick Nnadi (tricep), Skyy Moore (knee), and Prince Tega Wanogho (quad) for Sunday's AFC Championship Game.
Ravens Injury Report and Inactives Tonight
Star tight end Mark Andrews (ankle) amazingly practiced in full every day this week and is expected to play in Sunday's AFC Championship Game against the Chiefs. Andrews has played in just 10 games this season where he caught 45 receptions for 544 yards and six touchdowns within that span. The tight end will be a key part of this Ravens offense and the team is very glad to have him returning in such an important game.
Cornerback Marlon Humphrey (calf) is listed as questionable for Sunday but was able to get one full practice in on Friday after being a limited participant at the beginning of the week. Humphrey should be expected to play as Friday's practice results are a big step in the right direction. The same goes for cornerback Rock Ya-Sin (knee), who managed to practice in full on Friday after not practicing at all on Thursday.
Linebacker Del'Shawn Phillips (shoulder) is listed as doubtful and wideout Tylan Wallace (knee) is listed as questionable as both players were just a limited participant in practice on Friday.
All around, the Ravens have a relatively small injury report for Sunday's AFC Championship Game.
