It’s almost time for someone to take sole possession of the AFC West.
The Kansas City Chiefs (3-0) and Las Vegas Raiders (3-0) will battle at Allegiant Stadium this afternoon. The winner will remain undefeated and have the upper hand in the fight for the division. It’s a huge game for both teams.

Entering the day, the Chiefs were relatively healthy. Only one player missed practice on Friday: tackle Josh Simmons. He was ruled out for this game before the Chiefs even left for Las Vegas. Simmons has missed the first four games of the season with a back injury suffered in training camp.
He is joined by five other Chiefs on Kansas City’s Week 4 inactives list.

After missing the first three games of the season, the Chiefs will be getting safety Chamarri Conner back on Sunday. The 26-year-old had a career-high 117 total tackles last season. He has four interceptions, three sacks, and three forced fumbles in his NFL career. Conner is a big piece of Steve Spagnuolo’s defense who is returning at the perfect time.

After being limited early in the week, cornerback L’Jarius Sneed is also active. For the first time all year, the Chiefs will have their full complement of defensive backs to work with. They’ll need them to play big to slow down a surging Raiders offense.
The Chiefs and Raiders will kick off at 3:25 p.m. CST. The game can be seen on CBS.
