Here is the latest Mid-America sports news from The Associated Press

KANSAS CITY, Mo. (AP) β€” Chiefs coach Andy Reid is 16-2 when his teams are coming off a bye. That’s good news for a team that lost three of four heading into its week off. Also good news? The first opponent out of the bye is the 1-8 New York Giants, with more bottom-dwellers still to come for the AFC West leaders.

OMAHA, Neb. (AP) β€” Matt and Becca Hamilton of McFarland, Wisconsin, are at the U.S. Olympic curling trials in Omaha, Nebraska, this week vying for berths in the Pyeonchang Games. The two also will compete together in mixed doubles trials next month in Minnesota. Matt helped coach Becca when she first started curling. He said it’s a surreal feeling for them to be chasing their Olympic dreams together.
