The Kansas City Chiefs are a little banged up after their overtime win over the Indianapolis Colts, and Andy Reid's team doesn't have much time to dwell on the Week 12 win because the Dallas Cowboys on Thanksgiving comes into view.

When the Chiefs dropped their injury report on Monday, some fans were worried about some of the names on the list. Particularly, linebacker Leo Chenal, Rashee Rice, and Xavier Worthy were all limited in practice.

That isn't ideal when you have a monster game coming up that could decide your season in a couple of days. 

But if you were worried about the trio's chances of suiting up on Thanksgiving, on Tuesday, Reid might have eased those fears.

“Yeah, I think they'll be all right, see how it all rolls,” Reid said.

Chiefs facing danger Cowboys game

A couple of weeks ago, the Cowboys were seen as an easy kill given the shape of Matt Eberflus' defense, but now? Not so much.

With the additions of Quinnen Williams and Logan Wilson, coupled with the returns of Malik Hooker, DeMarvion Overshown, Donovan Wilson, and rookie Shavon Revel Jr., the defense has been playing well.

And Dak Prescott and the offense can go toe-to-toe with anyone in the league, so this won't be an easy game at AT&T Stadium for the Chiefs.

But with the season on the line, and the entire nation watching, Kansas City has to win to keep its playoff hopes alive, and in doing so, would end Dallas' season.

And having Chenal, Worthy, and Rice on the field would certainly help the cause.
