KANSAS CITY, Mo. The Chiefs put wide receiver DeAnthony Thomas and running back Akeem Hunt on injured reserve and added wide receiver Marcus Kemp and running back C.J. Spiller to the roster Tuesday.
Kansas City is preparing for its AFC wild-card playoff game against Tennessee on Saturday.
Thomas broke his leg during the Chiefs victory in Denver on Sunday, while Hunt left the game with an ankle injury. Both have provided depth this season, especially on special teams.
Kemp has spent the season on the practice squad, while Spiller has been on and off the roster several times. The veteran running backs presence is especially helpful as Charcandrick West, the primary backup to Kareem Hunt, deals with an illness.
West was inactive last week but participated in Tuesdays practice.
