Reid to rest some Chiefs starters vs. Chargers
KANSAS CITY, Mo. — With the Kansas City Chiefs having clinched the AFC’s No. 1 playoff seed and a first-round playoff bye, coach Andy Reid said some starters wouldn’t play in Sunday’s final regular-season game against the Los Angeles Chargers at Arrowhead Stadium.
Reid wasn’t specific about which players would be out of the lineup, saying he hadn’t decided on a plan. But he suggested backup quarterback Chad Henne would play instead of Patrick Mahomes.
“There’s a good chance you might see Chad somewhere in that game, if not the beginning then somewhere in there,” Reid said. “I’m not telling you it’s not the beginning. I’m sorting through all of it.”
