When you are 14-1 and have the top seed in the AFC clinched, you can give players a week to rest. Oh, and they get another week if you are the Kansas City Chiefs because they have earned a bye.
When the Chiefs play the Los Angeles Chargers on Sunday, they will have many starts on the sideline.
Patrick Mahomes, Tyreek Hill, Sammy Watkins, and the injured Clyde Edwards-Helaire will be resting up for the postseason.
Chiefs ruled out Tyreek Hill,, Clyde Edwards-Helaire and Sammy Watkins, to go along with Patrick Mahomes, for Sunday’s game vs. the Chargers.

Good thing most fantasy football leagues end after Week 16. If Deshaun Watson is able to throw for 283 yards in the Houston Texans’ game, he would surpass Mahomes’ 4,740 yards as the NFL leader for 2020.
