The big news today is that Tyreek Hill will be playing football against the Houston Texans. The fastest men in the world, Mecole Hardman and Hill, will both be screaming around Houston’s secondary.
Here are the #Chiefs official inactives for today’s game vs Texans:

OL Eric Fisher
WR Sammy Watkins
LB Dorian ‘O Daniel
OL Andrew Wylie
DL Chris Jones
LB Anthony Hitchens
OL Greg Senat
The Chiefs will need the help, since starters Eric Fisher, Sammy Watkins, Andrew Wylie, Chris Jones, and Anthony Hitchens will all be missing this one. Jones is Kansas City’s best defensive player, by the way. It’s Frank Clark, Emmanuel Ogbah, and Alex Okafor today.
The Texans will be missing the following players on the bar napkin. Remember what I said about Hardeman and Hill tearing through the Texans’ secondary? That secondary will be missing Johnathan Joseph.

Joseph’s absence is the one that matters most, though Kenny Stills will be missed as well (but perhaps Keke Coutee can pick up that slack). Houston will miss J-Jo’s detective work against a frenzied Chiefs’ passing offense.
Houston and Kansas City kick off in about an hour.
