The Chiefs (14-1) made Jones inactive for their Christmas Day meeting with Pittsburgh (10-5). Jones, a five-time Pro Bowler, is dealing with a calf injury he sustained late in last week’s victory over Houston. This is just the eighth game Jones has missed since entering the league in 2016.

The Kansas City Chiefs are gearing up for a crucial Christmas clash against the Pittsburgh Steelers. But when the Chiefs take to the field, they’ll be doing so without arguably their best defensive player.

For their game against the Steelers, the Chiefs have injury designations for Jones, D.J. Humphries and others with additional moves made.
