Chiefs RB Isiah Pacheco to play vs. Ravens

"Chiefs' Pacheco active for AFC Championship Game, Ravens' Humphrey also active. Gay, Toney, and others inactive. Johnson emergency QB for Baltimore."

The Kansas City Chiefs will have running back Isiah Pacheco active and ready to play in the AFC Championship Game against the Baltimore Ravens. Pacheco had been questionable due to ankle and toe injuries but will be on the field for the big game. Despite missing practice earlier in the week, Pacheco was limited in Friday's practice and is set to contribute to the Chiefs' offense. In the divisional round, Pacheco had a strong performance with 97 rushing yards and a touchdown. Throughout the regular season, he totaled 935 rushing yards, seven touchdowns, and 44 receptions for 244 yards and two scores in 14 games.

However, linebacker Willie Gay will be inactive for the game due to a neck injury that forced him out of the previous week's matchup. Safety Mike Edwards, who was listed as questionable, will be active for the game. On the other side, the Ravens will have cornerback Marlon Humphrey active despite a calf injury, but cornerback Rock Ya-Sin will be inactive due to a knee injury. Quarterback Josh Johnson and Malik Cunningham will also be inactive for Baltimore, with Johnson serving as the emergency third quarterback. Additionally, wide receiver Tylan Wallace, linebacker Del'Shawn Phillips, guard Sala Aumavae-Laulu, and center Sam Mustipher will not be available for the Ravens.

It's a game that promises to be intense and full of action with both teams dealing with injuries and roster adjustments. The stage is set for an exciting and competitive AFC Championship Game.
