The Kansas City Chiefs are still unbeaten despite dealing with plenty of injuries for the majority of the season.
Now, as they are getting ready to face the Buffalo Bills in Week 11, head coach Andy Reid recently gave updates on multiple impactful players.
Starting running back Isiah Pacheco (fibula) will not return to play this week, but veteran receiver JuJu Smith-Schuster (hamstring) is set to make his return to the lineup, according to ESPN.

The scary thing for opposing teams is that the Chiefs are unbeaten and haven’t even had their full complement of weapons.
Now, Smith-Schuster will return to the lineup to play alongside future newcomer DeAndre Hopkins and stalwart Travis Kelce in the passing game.
Another veteran wide receiver, Marquise “Hollywood” Brown, who has not played yet this season, reportedly has a chance to be back at some point around the time of the playoffs.
Adding a bruising back like Pacheco back to the lineup could make the rushing attack even more imposing.
With Reid being one of the most creative and best offensive minds in the history of the league, Chiefs fans should be excited about the potential of the team as it gets healthier.
No matter what this team faces, they also still have an MVP and multiple Super Bowl champion quarterback under center in Patrick Mahomes, who has seen it all and done it all.
This game against the Bills will be a measuring stick for where this 2024 Chiefs squad is at in terms of how they play against the best.
