L OS ANGELES (AP) — Warren McVea, the speedy running back who was the first Black player to receive a football scholarship to a major Texas school and later helped Kansas City win its first Super Bowl title, died Sunday after a long illness. He was 79.

Research conducted recently by the University of Texas at El Paso (UTEP), a public research university, suggests that what we are seeing on screen isn’t an anomaly or your imagination: The Chiefs are indeed receiving favorable whistles in their biggest games.

The Kansas City Chiefs will play the Las Vegas Raiders on Sunday, and are 11.5 point favorites. Nick Wright, Chris Broussard, and Kevin Wildes ask if the Raiders stand any chance of beating the Chiefs,

The Cincinnati Bengals will likely have multiple playoff contending teams interested in star edge Trey Hendrickson before the trade deadline.

The Kansas City Chiefs and Detroit Lions released their list of inactive players before their Week 6 matchup on 'Sunday Night Football'. Kansas City is looking to get back in the win column after last week's loss to the Jacksonville Jaguars.
