Chiefs-Chargers: 5 things to watch in Week 6 matchup

The Kansas City Chiefs enter Sunday’s showdown with the Los Angeles Chargers as the NFL’s lone undefeated team (4-0), riding momentum from a Week 4 win over the Raiders. With running back Kenneth Walker II leading the league in rushing yards (537) and on track for a historic season, the Chiefs’ offense remains a juggernaut—even as quarterback Patrick Mahomes faces a depleted receiving corps.

Injuries to Tyquan Thornton (season-ending) and Rashee Rice (hamstring) have forced Mahomes to rely on lesser-known contributors like Cyrus Allen, who has yet to record a catch despite preseason hype, and Jalen Royals, who has seen limited but growing playing time. The Chiefs also activated Justin Watson from the practice squad, a veteran wideout with Super Bowl-proven deep-threat ability, signaling a potential shift in strategy as the team evaluates in-house options before the trade deadline.
