The Kansas City Chiefs depth is going to be tested. According to NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport, KC Chiefs CB Marcus Peters will be limited if he’s able to play at all today against the Buccaneers.
#Chiefs star CB Marcus Peters, who didn’t practice, is battling a painful hip pointer. He’ll try to play, but will be limited if he does

I’m not surprised he’s going to try to play. He’s as competitive as anyone. He was listed as questionable coming into the game after hurting his hip last week against the Panthers. Peters was asked about the injury after the game and he said there’s a difference between being hurt and being injured.
The Chiefs listed CB Phillip Gaines as questionable and it’s not clear if DJ White, who broke his hand a few weeks ago, will play. If Peters is limited it could mean more responsibility for Steven Nelson, who has had a pretty good run as of late.
