The Houston Texans, who have secured the AFC South title for the second consecutive year, are set to face the Kansas City Chiefs this Saturday. Despite a recent loss, the Texans are optimistic about their playoff prospects under head coach DeMeco Ryans, who has made history by leading the team to the playoffs in his first two seasons.

The matchup loses some excitement with the potential absence of Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes, who is dealing with an ankle injury. If Mahomes can't play, Super Bowl Champion Carson Wentz will take over as the starter. This game will mark Wentz's first start since last season.
