KANSAS CITY, Mo. — The Chiefs will start backup Carson Wentz at quarterback on Sunday in Denver in a game that means nothing to Kansas City, which has already clinched the No. 1 seed in the AFC playoffs, but could mean everything to the Broncos. They would clinch a playoff berth as the No. 7 seed by beating the Chiefs, while a loss coupled with a win by the Dolphins or Bengals would knock Denver from the postseason. Chiefs coach Andy Reid declined to say who else might spend the day with Mahomes on the sideline, pointing out that only so many players can be rested given roster limitations.
