The Chiefs earned a rest after beating the Steelers 29-10 on Christmas Day for their third victory in 11 days. For some of them, that rest could be at least 24 days long. That's because the win also clinched the No. 1 seed in the AFC for Kansas City, rendering its regular-season finale in Denver moot.

“It’s been almost 10 weeks of football, grinding on this short schedule at the very end of the year,” Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes said. “We’ll see how Week 18 goes — who plays, who doesn’t play. That’s up to Coach. But having this break, getting healthy, getting ourselves ready for the playoffs, it was super important, especially with the guys we have banged up.
“It will definitely help with some of the guys that are banged up, to get guys back, freshened up a little bit,” said Reid, who has rested important players in Week 18 in the past, including last season against the Chargers. “I think it will be a positive for us.”For those dealing with injuries, that full 24-day span without a game could be exactly what they need.
