The Kansas City Chiefs enter Thanksgiving Day with a 6-5 record after a 23-20 overtime win against the Indianapolis Colts.

The injury report for Kansas City had quite a few issues on it. Offensive lineman Trey Smith was listed as a DNP all week after suffering a high and low-ankle sprain in the game against the Colts.

Tight end Noah Gray and Smith were then officially ruled out on Wednesday. Gray is dealing with a concussion.

The Chiefs' superstar quarterback was able to practice on Tuesday, which was a promising sign for his availability for the Cowboys game.

On Wednesday, the latest injury report stated that Mahomes is good to go, as he was listed as a full participant once again.

There wasn't much doubt about his status, but his being listed on the report was a little cause for concern.

This year, Mahomes has thrown for 2,977 yards with 18 touchdowns and seven interceptions, including five interceptions over the last four games.

The only other QB on the active roster is veteran Gardner Minshew, but he will once again be the backup as Mahomes continues to try and win games.

The Chiefs and Cowboys kick off at 4:30 pm ET on Thanksgiving Day with the game being broadcast on CBS.
