Moving onto Sunday, the early action involved the Chiefs traveling to Miami face the Dolphins in an AFC playoff picture matchup. The defending Super Bowl champions were victorious as they won 33–27. This now keeps them in the sole position to win out the conference. Deon Yelder played a total of 14 snaps.
Another duo #ProTops game involved coach Romeo Crennel’s Texans and the Bears. Joel Iyiegbuniwe had a solo tackle and played 21 snap counts.
