Sunday Night Football: Chris Jones, Mansoor Delane active for Chiefs-Colts

The Chiefs will officially have two of their best defensive players when they play the Colts on Sunday night.

The Kansas City Chiefs are set to welcome the Indianapolis Colts onto the field for their Sunday Night Football matchup. Headlines will be made by two defensive standouts: Chris Jones and Mansoor Delane. Jones has been contending with a calf injury, limiting his availability in practice sessions earlier in the week, but was deemed healthy enough to play after being listed as questionable.

In contrast, Delane fully participated in practice sessions on Wednesday and Thursday but was restricted on Friday, leading to his questionable status. Delane's shoulder was aggravated following his interception of Drew Lock at the end of Denver's opening series. Kansas City will be without Jared Wiley, Garrett Nussmeier, Chamarri Conner, Jack Pyburn, Diego Pounds, Josh Simmons, and Bryson Eason.

The Colts will be without Ashton Dulin, Riley Leonard, DJ Giddens, George Gumbs Jr., Austin Ajiake, and Dalton Tucker. Riley Leonard and Garrett Nussmeier will don the role of emergency third quarterbacks for their respective teams.
