Kansas City Chiefs will be without starting tight end Kevin Boss when they take on the New Orleans Saints, due to the head injury that caused him to leave last week's game against the Buffalo Bills.

There are two other players who are out against the Saints, and they are a pair of reserves in cornerback Jacques Reeves and wide receiver Devon Wylie.
