With position mates Antonio Hamilton, Charvarius Ward and Bashaud Breeland also active, Fenton is slated for a situational role on defense.

Clear for Week 11 Fenton (ankle) was a full participant in practice Friday, and he enters Kansas City's Sunday night matchup against the Raiders without an injury designation.

Impact Fenton sprained an ankle during the Chiefs' Week 9 win over the Panthers, but extra recuperation time during the team's bye provided ample recovery time for the 23-year-old. He was limited Wednesday and Thursday but has shed any sort of designation heading into the game against 6-3 Las Vegas. Thus far in 2020, Fenton has recorded one interception, five pass deflections and 22 tackles, holding opponents to a sub-59 percent completion rate on 41 targets against him in coverage.
