Chiefs declared DT Chris Jones, DE Joshua Uche, OL C.J. Hanson, OL D.J. Humphries, T Ethan Driskell and DE Malik Herring inactive for Week 17 against the Steelers.

The Chiefs were hopeful that Jones may be able to go, but the calf injury and the short layoff made it impossible for the 30-year-old to go. There’s a good chance he’ll be able to play if Week 18 against the Broncos game if that contest has any significance. The Chiefs will miss Humphries for a third straight game, but Jawaan Taylor (knee) is active for the Christmas Day contest.
