Another week, another calamity for the Kansas City Chiefs.
According to ESPN NFL Nation reporter Adam Teicher, several Kansas City Chiefs players have yet to turn up at Arrowhead Stadium hours before their matchup this afternoon with the Denver Broncos. Among the missing are running back LeSean McCoy and wide receiver Sammy Watkins.

This is the second week in a row that the Kansas City Chiefs have been beset by logistics issues. Last week, just hours before their road game versus the New England Patriots, team staff forgot to unload several bags of equipment and accidentally sent them to Newark, New Jersey. The bags made their way back to Foxboro just in time for the game.
The two were caught in traffic due to a heavy snowstorm over Kansas City.

Despite the snowstorm in KC, all Chiefs players now have arrived at Arrowhead Stadium, per sources. Players who were caught in traffic and in accidents on the way to the stadium did call ahead to Chiefs’ officials, and now all have made it.
