The Chiefs and Broncos play the final Week 1 game, meeting on Monday Night Football.
The Chiefs already had ruled out offensive tackle Josh Simmons (back) and safety Chamarri Conner (knee).
Their healthy scratches are quarterback Garrett Nussmeier, tight end Jared Wiley, offensive tackle Diego Pounds, defensive tackle Bryson Eason and linebacker Jack Pyburn. Nussmeier is the team’s emergency third quarterback.
The Broncos did not have any injuries heading into Week 1, so all of their inactives are healthy scratches.
Quarterback Sam Ehlinger, running back Tyler Badie, offensive lineman Kage Casey, tight end Dallen Bentley, defensive lineman Jordan Jackson and defensive tackle Tyler Onyedim are inactive for Monday night’s game against the Chiefs. Ehlinger will serve as the emergency third quarterback.
That means Jarrett Stidham officially held onto the backup job behind Bo Nix.
Fourth-round rookie running back Jonah Coleman is dressed.
