The Kansas City Chiefs are fresh off the bye week and the healthiest they’ve been since the beginning of the season. The Oakland Raiders are a bit banged up after a road defeat to the Jets in Week 12.
Check out the full injury report for the Chiefs down below:
Player | Injury | Participation* |
QB Patrick Mahomes | Knee | FP |
WR Tyreek Hill | Hamstring | FP |
RB Damien Williams | Ribs | DNP |
S Jordan Lucas | Shoulder | FP |
DT Derrick Nnadi | Elbow | FP |
TE Blake Bell | Ankle | FP |
DE Alex Okafor | Ankle | FP |
RT Mitchell Schwartz | Knee | FP |
CB Kendall Fuller | Thumb | FP |
Don’t let the length of the injury list fool you, this is the healthiest the Chiefs have been since the start of the season. The only player who didn’t practice today is Damien Williams. It sounds like the Chiefs anticipate him being out for this game and will lean on LeSean McCoy, Darrel Williams and Darwin Thompson to carry the load at the running back spot.
Tyreek Hill was a full participant after injuring his hamstring and missing most of the game in Week 11. He’s expected to play this week.
Alex Okafor, Kendall Fuller and Jordan Lucas all missed Week 11 against the Chargers. If their practice participation holds they’ll all have a chance to play against the Raiders in Week 13.

Former Chiefs C Rodney Hudson has been in and out of the starting lineup with an ankle injury. It’s not yet clear if he’ll be available this week.
WR Hunter Renfrow, who has been coming on for Oakland lately, has broken ribs and a punctured lung so he won’t be available to play.
RB Josh Jacobs is a physical runner, so even if he does play after a limited practice early in the week, the shoulder injury is something to watch out for.
