Javier Arenas Among Chiefs Inactives For Dolphins Game

by Joel Thorman on Nov 6, 2011 10:45 AM CST

The Kansas City Chiefs entered Sunday's game against the Miami Dolphins with two names on the injury report -- S Jon McGraw was doubtful with a shoulder injury and CB Javier Arenas was questionable with an ankle injury. Both of those players appear on the Chiefs inactive list, which means they will not play.

S Donald Washington and/or Sabby Piscitelli likely step in and plays safety while RB Dexter McCluster could see some action on kick returns with Arenas out. CB Travis Daniels probably sees more nickel duty as well.

The rest of the Chiefs inactives don't include any surprises: QB Ricky Stanzi, OT Steve Maneri, WR Jerheme Urban, DE Brandon Bair and NT Jerrell Powe.

The Dolphins are missing a key players today, too. Their inactives include: Vontae Davis, Steve Slaton, Ike Alama-Francis, Will Barker, John Jerry, Will Yeatman, Phillip Merling.

A key name not on the Dolphins inactives? RB Daniel Thomas. He's active today.

Mcgraw is playing his best football right now

Not a big enough blow to where it will cost us the game or anything, but still a blow.

Give Matt some confidence early

Does Dex get less looks on O then?

I can’t figure out who to start as my third WR.. Jacoby Jones, Dex, or Breaston. Any help?

Jones or Breaston.

With Vontae Davis out theyre going to be forced to double Bowe which should make for good production from Breaston/Baldwin

You take Jones if you think that Houston is going to light up Cleveland like a Christmas tree

And he’s bound to get one of the scores.

I've actually become comfortable with Washington at SS. He's looked like a completely different player then the guy who seemed to be confused all the time last year.

Arenas out is a big deal though especially with Bess as their slot guy.

I hope the coaching staff has finally figured out when and when not to utilize Dex

With him it’s either a 4 yard loss or a 7 yard gain it seems like
