The Kansas City Chiefs are trying to make another Super Bowl this season. However, they had a rough start to the year and then dropped to 5-5 after back-to-back losses to the Buffalo Bills and Denver Broncos.

In Week 12, the Chiefs defeated the Indianapolis Colts, 23-20, in overtime, to get back above .500.

In Week 13, Patrick Mahomes' team faces the Dallas Cowboys on Thanksgiving Day in a huge showdown.

The injury report going into the game was concerning for the Chiefs. On Wednesday, offensive lineman Trey Smith and tight end Noah Gray were among three players ruled out for the game.

Another player whose status was being monitored was wide receiver Rashee Rice.

Rice was listed as a limited participant in the estimated injury report for Monday, although the Chiefs didn't hold an actual practice.

Rice was listed with a hamstring injury, but he has now been listed as a full participant two days in a row, making him good to go for the game, per the injury report and Adam Schefter of ESPN.

"After being listed as a limited participant at practice earlier in the week due to a hamstring injury, Chiefs WR Rashee Rice was listed as a full participant the past two days and is good to go Thursday vs. Dallas." Schefter posted on X.

Rice has 394 yards and three touchdowns this season after being cleared from his six-game suspension.

Xavier Worthy also popped up on the injury report but was also listed as a full participant, so it is a positive step for Mahomes and the offense going into Thanksgiving.

Kansas City visits Dallas (5-5-1) at 4:30 p.m. ET Thursday on CBS.
