3 years agoKansas City Chiefs safety Tyrann Mathieu (concussion) was forced from Sunday's win over Buffalo during the first quarter after entering concussion protocol. But reportedly, the Chiefs are looking at having their Pro Bowl safety back in the mix for the AFC Championship Game, a major boon to a secondary that was picked apart in Mathieu's absence. He finished the regular season with 76 tackles, six passes defended, and three interceptions across 16 games. Additionally, cornerback Rashad Fenton (back), who missed the win over the Bills due to a back ailment, is expected to suit up this Sunday as well. Fantasy managers exploring the DFS market will want to monitor Mathieu's status in particular, but a green light for the star safety makes the Chiefs' defense a more appealing fantasy asset.--Jesse Borek
