The Kansas City Chiefs have been dealt a significant injury blow ahead of the AFC Title game.

The Chiefs will play the Baltimore Ravens away on Sunday in the hopes of returning to the Super Bowl. But they will have to attempt it without Joe Thuney.

The All-Pro lineman, one of the best offensive guards in the NFL, has been ruled out of Sunday’s game with a pec strain, per ESPN’s Adam Schefter.

The Chiefs will also be without defensive tackle Derrick Nnadi, who is dealing with a tricep problem, while wide receiver Skyy Moore and offensive tackle Prince Tega Wanagho are to remain on the injured reserve.

Running back Isaiah Pacheco is questionable, having missed practice with a toe injury this week, but he has said he will be good to play on Sunday. Wide receiver Kadarius Toney and linebacker Willie Gay are also questionable given their hip/ankle and neck problems, respectively.

Thuney started all 17 games for the Chiefs in the regular season and was named a Pro Bowler for the second time in his career, also earning All-Pro honors. His absence could prove costly.
