Three Chiefs — defensive lineman Chris Jones, center Creed Humphrey and guard/tackle Joe Thuney — were selected to the Players All-Pro team this week.

According to ESPN’s Jeremy Fowler, All-Pro guard Joe Thuney will get the call at left tackle over D.J. Humphries to start against the Houston Texans, marking his fourth game at the position.
Houston linebacker Azeez Al-Shaair (knee), right guard Shaq Mason (knee), offensive lineman Juice Scruggs (ankle) and wide receiver Robert Woods (hip) also were active. Woods did not practice all week and had been listed as questionable.
