Toney recorded five receptions on seven targets for 36 yards in Saturday's 27-20 win over the Jaguars. He added one rush for 14 yards.

Toney joined Travis Kelce as the only Chiefs' pass catcher to record more than two receptions in Saturday's win. He was limited to work around the line of scrimmage, though the team continued to show the desire to keep him involved in the offense in a variety of ways. Toney will likely rotate into the game behind JuJu Smith-Schuster and Marquez Valdes-Scantling in next week's AFC Championship Game.

Jones recorded five receptions on seven targets for 83 yards in Saturday's 27-20 loss to the Chiefs.

Jones was doubled in targets by Christian Kirk, but he still managed to lead the Jaguars in receiving yards. His 37-yard reception early in the fourth quarter was the highlight of his performance, and it also marked Jones' seventh reception of 20 yards or more in his last nine games. Jones enjoyed his best season in the NFL in 2022, and he remains under contract with the Jaguars for the 2023 campaign. However, he is likely to lose some opportunity as the team welcomes Calvin Ridley (suspension) into its receiving corps.

Kirk said after Saturday's divisional-round loss at Kansas City that his left knee "is not feeling great," but it's been determined that its structurally normal, Cameron Wolfe of NFL Network reports.

Kirk missed a portion of the fourth quarter after suffering a knee injury on an incompletion from quarterback Trevor Lawrence, but the wide receiver made a five-yard catch immediately before a Riley Patterson field goal that whittled the score to 27-20 with 25 seconds remaining. Ultimately, Kirk finished with seven receptions (on 14 targets) for 52 yards and one touchdown while adding an 18-yard rush. He'll turn his focus to recovering from the health concern this offseason.

Kirk exited Saturday's divisional-round game at Kansas City due to a knee injury, Demetrius Harvey of The Florida Times-Union reports.

Midway through the fourth quarter, Kirk remained on the turf after a pass directed his way by quarterback Trevor Lawrence. Jaguars trainers evaluated Kirk's left leg on the field before assisting him off the field and directing him to the sideline tent, where he was diagnosed with a knee issue. If he's unable to return, he'll end the divisional round with six catches (on 13 targets) for 47 yards and one touchdown to go with an 18-yard carry.

Kemp (coach's decision) is listed as inactive for Saturday's AFC divisional-round game against the Jaguars.

Kemp was elevated from the Chiefs' practice squad to their active roster earlier in the week, but he will ultimately not be active. Thus, he will watch Saturday's game from the sideline.

Pryor (shoulder) is listed as inactive for Saturday's AFC divisional-round game against the Chiefs.

Pryor has yet to make his NFL debut since being claimed off waivers by the Jaguars on Aug. 31. The undrafted rookie will now watch Saturday's win-or-go-home game from the sideline.

Agnew (shoulder) is active for Saturday's AFC divisional-round contest against the Chiefs.

Agnew has been nusing a shoulder injury for a couple weeks and has been limited at practice as a result. Barring any setbacks, he figures to take on his usual role returning kicks and providing depth at wide receiver.

Jennings (ankle) doesn't have a designation for Sunday's divisional-round game versus the Cowboys, Matt Barrows of The Athletic reports.

Jennings operated under practice restrictions Wednesday and Thursday due to an ankle injury, but it won't impact his ability to suit up for the second round of the playoffs. With Deebo Samuel available the last two games, Jennings has moved back to a complementary role behind Samuel and Brandon Aiyuk, gathering in three of seven targets for 51 yards during that span.

The Chiefs elevated Kemp from their practice squad Friday for Saturday's divisional-round matchup against the Jaguars, Field Yates of ESPN reports.

Kemp drew three regular-season elevations, but he failed to garner a target across 10 offensive snaps and played primarily on special teams (62 snaps). Kansas City will be without Mecole Hardman (pelvis), but Kemp is still unlikely to garner a significant offensive role.

Reynolds caught 38 of 59 targets for 479 yards with three touchdowns over 14 games in 2022.

Opening the year as the No. 3 wideout behind Amon-Ra St. Brown and DJ Chark, Reynolds had a handful of big games early on before suffering through a mid-season back injury. While Reynolds worked his way back into the mix down the stretch, by that time Jameson Williams also was healthy enough to play and, consequently, steal snaps from Reynolds. While the Texas A&M product technically remains under contract to return to his complementary role in 2023, it is possible that Detroit will consider saving nearly $4 million against the salary cap -- while making room for Williams to make a second-year leap -- by letting Reynolds go this offseason.
