KANSAS CITY, Mo. (AP) — Justin Herbert had just turned 10 years old when Chiefs quarterback Chad Henne was drafted by the Miami Dolphins. Think that’s wild? The Chargers QB was still in high school the previous time Henne started a game. It will be quite the matchup on Sunday when the 22-year-old Herbert, who has surpassed just about everyone’s expectations during a breakout rookie season, starts for the Chargers in Kansas City. Opposite him will be the 35-year-old Henne, who gets the nod as the Chiefs rest their starters with the No. 1 seed in the AFC playoffs already secured.

The Kansas City Chiefs go for their franchise record 11th straight win when they play the Los Angeles Chargers at Arrowhead Stadium on Sunday. But with the No. 1 seed and first-round bye in the AFC playoffs already secured Patrick Mahomes and many other starters will have at least some of the weekend off. The Chiefs have won three straight and 12 of their last 13 against the Chargers, who come into Sunday riding a three-game win streak.

COSTA MESA, Calif (AP) — The Los Angeles Chargers will be without six starters, including both of their Pro Bowl selections for Sunday’s season finale at Kansas City. Wide receiver Keenan Allen has been placed on the reserve/COVID-19 list. Defensive end Joey Bosa is out for the second straight week due to a concussion and shin injury. Tight end Hunter Henry will miss his second straight game as he remains on the COVID-19 list. Offensive tackle Bryan Bulaga, cornerback Casey Hayward Jr. and safety Rayshawn Jenkins have also been ruled out along with reserve linebacker Malik Jefferson.
