KANSAS CITY, Mo. (AP) — The Kansas City Chiefs have shown an uncanny ability through their first three games to absorb injuries and suspensions and keep on winning. But that resilience could be put to the test in another marquee matchup against the New England Patriots on Sunday. Rookie defensive back L’Jarius Sneed already has been ruled out after surgery for the collarbone he broke last weekend against Baltimore, and defensive tackle Chris Jones is dealing with a nagging groin injury.

The Chiefs also are without cornerback Bashaud Breeland, who is finishing his four-game suspension.
