The Kansas City Chiefs have released their list of inactive players for Sunday’s game against the Las Vegas Raiders.

The Chiefs had already ruled guard Trey Smith out with a lingering ankle ailment on Friday’s final injury report. Wideout Xavier Worthy will not suit up after being listed as doubtful while battling an illness. Running back Isiah Pacheco and defensive end George Karlaftis were limited in practice all week with a rest designation. After being listed as questionable, neither player will dress.

Defensive tackle Jerry Tillery also drew the questionable tag after missing Friday’s practice for personal reasons, but he is active.

The Chiefs will also sit cornerback Melvin Smith Jr., defensive end Tyreke Smith, and nose tackle Mike Pennel.

On Saturday, Kansas City elevated practice squad wide receivers Jason Bronwlee and Jimmy Holiday to the active roster. As elevated players, they will automatically be returned to the team’s practice squad after the game. Both are active for the contest — which will be Holiday’s NFL debut.

The Raiders have also released their list of inactives.

Quarterback Geno Smith had already been ruled out with an ankle injury on Friday’s final report. Backup Kenny Pickett will be under center for Las Vegas. They had also already ruled out guard Dylan Parham with an illness and defensive tackle Adam Butler with a biceps injury.

Las Vegas will also not dress running back Raheem Mostert, cornerback Chigozie Anusiem, safety Terrell Edmunds, and defensive tackle (and recent Chiefs practice squad member) Brodric Martin.

The Raiders have elevated linebacker Jamin Davis and tackle Dalton Wagner for the matchup. Both will dress for the game.
