For Chiefs coach Andy Reid and his staff, as well as general manager Brett Veach and the front office, a lot of decisions must be made in a condensed period of time with the preseason finale against the Green Bay Packers looming Thursday night at Arrowhead Stadium.
While the fourth preseason game likely won’t alter the Chiefs’ starting lineups or rotations used when the regular season starts, it will be the final chance for players on the bubble to make their case for a roster spot. Starters for both teams are expected to sit out Thursday, paving the way for extended playing time for inexperienced players and backups hoping to latch on with an NFL team.
