Clyde-Edwards Helaire (illness) didn't practice Friday.

Apparently it's a stomach virus keeping Edwards-Helaire out of practice. Head coach Andy Reid said he thinks the rookie will be able to suit up Sunday night against Denver despite missing the week's final two practices with the stomach illness. Probably neither Le'Veon Bell nor Darrel Williams would dominate KC's backfield if CEH is held out. Williams would seem to have an edge on the pass catching role if CEH is out. Bell would likely take early downs and be the favorite for short yardage and goal line work.

KhaDarel Hodge (hamstring) is out for Week 13 against the Titans.

Hodge played 43 percent of the team's offensive snaps last week and drew three targets. His absence could be a slight snap and target bump for Rashard Higgins, though Higgins is only a WR4 play this week against Tennessee. Donovan Peoples-Jones could see more playing time this week with Hodge sidelined.

Allen Robinson (knee) is questionable for Week 13 against the Lions.

Robinson reportedly injured his knee in practice and was removed for precautionary reasons. Assuming he suits up, Sunday makes for a terrific matchup against a banged up Lions secondary that has permitted the fifth-most receiving yards to opposing wideouts this year. Darnell Mooney (knee) is also questionable for Sunday.
