Final Chiefs-Bills injury report: Which starter will miss Sunday’s AFC Championship Game?

The injury news for the AFC Championship Game could hardly be better for the Chiefs.

The same isn’t true for the Buffalo Bills.

The Chiefs on Friday afternoon reported no injuries ahead of Sunday’s game against Buffalo, which is scheduled to kick off at 5:30 p.m. Central Time at GEHA Field at Arrowhead Stadium in Kansas City.

Four Chiefs players are listed on the injury report: guard Mike Caliendo (shoulder), quarterback Patrick Mahomes (ankle), right tackle Jawaan Taylor (knee) and cornerback Jaylen Watson (ankle). All were full practice participants all week.

The Bills will be missing starting safety Taylor Rapp, who is out with a hip injury. Rapp came up with an interception of Lamar Jackson and added a pass breakup in last week’s AFC Divisional Round victory.

Rookie Cole Bishop, a second-round pick from Utah, will get the start.

The Bills also listed cornerback Christian Benford (concussion) as questionable for Sunday’s game.
