KANSAS CITY CHIEFS NEWS

Contributes in passing game McKinnon didn't carry the ball but hauled in three of six targets for 26 yards during Sunday's 26-10 win against the Rams.

Impact McKinnon remains in a rotational backfield role with Isiah Pacheco. Instead of it becoming a two-man backfield committee with Clyde Edwards-Helaire (ankle) sidelined, Ronald Jones has joined the mix and saw more rushing attempts (four) than McKinnon. McKinnon should remain the primary receiving threat out of the backfield, but it doesn't appear he will benefit much from CEH's absence.

NFL Power Rankings: Eagles still on top; Jets, Bengals move up

Everyone knows anything can happen in the NFL. The Jets and Bengals move up in the NFL Power Rankings, while the Eagles stay on top.

NOVEMBER 29, 2022

Snags INT in win Sneed registered seven tackles (five solo) and an interception in Sunday's 26-10 win over the Rams.

Impact Sneed was temporarily forced out in the second quarter to undergo evaluation for a potential concussion, though he was ultimately able to return and finish as the Chiefs' second-leading tackler behind middle linebacker Nick Bolton. The third-year cornerback also nabbed his first interception of the season and the sixth of his career, picking off Bryce Perkins for a 26-yard return in the fourth quarter. Through 11 games in 2022, Sneed has now matched his previous career highs for tackles (76) and passes defended (eight) from last season, and he should play a critical role against the Bengals' dangerous passing offense next Sunday.

Grabs another INT in Week 12 Bolton recorded 11 tackles (eight solo) and one interception during Sunday's 26-10 win versus the Rams.

Impact Bolton notched the second interception of his career after picking off Chargers' quarterback Justin Herbert just last week. The 22-year-old linebacker also logged double-digit tackles for the sixth time this season, and he once again finished with a team high in this category. Bolton is now only seven stops away from setting a new career high in tackles.

Team-high five catches Sunday Moore caught five of six targets for 36 yards in Sunday's 26-10 win over the Rams.

Impact While another lost fumble on a punt return may end up costing him those duties on a permanent basis, Moore made up for it by leading Kansas City in receptions on the afternoon, though the receptions didn't result in much yardage. The rookie has caught five passes in back-to-back games as he takes advantage of injuries to Mecole Hardman (abdomen) and Kadarius Toney (hamstring), giving him some deep-league fantasy intrigue heading into a Week 13 clash with the Bengals.

NOVEMBER 28, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Another end zone trip Kelce caught four of eight targets for 57 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 26-10 win over the Rams.

Impact The tight end led Kansas City in receiving yards by one over Marquez Valdes-Scantling, and Kelce was on the other end of Patrick Mahomes' only TD pass of the afternoon. It's his fifth touchdown in the last three games and his NFL-leading 12th of the season -- that's among all players, not just TEs. Kelce will look to extend his scoring streak to four games in Week 13 against the Bengals.

NOVEMBER 28, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Four catches in Sunday's win Valdes-Scantling caught four of five targets for 56 yards in Sunday's 26-10 win over the Rams.

Impact Travis Kelce bested him by one yard for the team lead as Valdes-Scantling saw his highest target volume since Week 5. The former Packer remains a secondary part of the high-powered Kansas City passing game, making him a volatile fantasy option heading into a Week 13 clash with the Bengals.

NOVEMBER 28, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Strong showing against Rams Pacheco carried the ball 22 times for 69 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 26-10 win over the Rams. He also caught his only target for 17 yards.

Impact In his third game as the lead early down back for Kansas City, Pacheco saw his yards per carry regress but made up for it by getting into the end zone for the first time since Week 1. The rookie running back has 258 rushing yards over that three-game stretch, and he figures to see plenty of work again in Week 13 against the Bengals.

NOVEMBER 28, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Another 300-yard performance Mahomes completed 27 of 42 passes for 320 yards and one touchdown with one interception in Sunday's 26-10 win over the Rams. He added 36 rushing yards on four carries.

Impact Kansas City wasn't able to pull away until the second half, but Mahomes still reeled off his sixth straight game with over 300 passing yards and once again hit Travis Kelce for another TD. Mahomes has already topped 3,500 passing yards on the season as he takes aim at Peyton Manning's NFL record of 5,477, and he could need to produce more fireworks in Week 13 in a showdown with Joe Burrow and the Bengals.

Back in Sunday's game Sneed (head) returned to Sunday's game against the Rams, Adam Teicher of ESPN.com reports.

Impact After taking a hit to the helmet in the second quarter, Sneed was looked at on the field before walking slowly to the sideline tent and eventually the locker room. He was evaluated for a head injury, but after passing concussion tests he was cleared to reenter this Week 12 contest. Sneed will look to build upon the three tackles that he accrued prior to his exit.

NOVEMBER 27, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Undergoing concussion evaluation Sneed is undergoing evaluation for a possible concussion and is questionable to return to Sunday's game against the Rams.

Impact Sneed took a blow to the head and was tended to on the field before walking under his own power into the medical tent on Kansas City's sideline, according to Matt Derrick of ChiefsDigest.com. The 25-year-old was then seen heading to the locker room, per Nate Taylor of The Athletic, though the severity of his injury is still unclear. With Sneed's return up in the air, expect Joshua Williams and Jaylen Watson to step up alongside starting cornerback Trent McDuffie on Sunday.

Isn't suiting up in Week 12 Thuney (ankle) is listed as inactive for Sunday's game against the Rams.

Impact Thuney is now slated to miss his first game of the 2022-23 campaign as a result of an ankle issue. In Thuney's absence, Nick Allegretti seems likely to fill the vacated starting left guard role.
