Charles Omenihu's ankle issue remains on the radar for Week 6 against Detroit, but he practiced fully and played in Week 5 vs Jacksonville, keeping him in the mix for Sunday Night Football. If he can go, KC's defensive line should stay intact; if not, George Karlaftis, Malik Herring, and Ashton Gillotte step into larger roles to pressure Jared Goff in a prime-time test.

Fantasy takeaway: monitor Omenihu's status leading up to kickoff. A healthy game limits downside for KC’s front, while an absence would lift the ceiling for Karlaftis and the depth trio in deeper rosters or DFS tournaments, especially if the Lions' protection holds up under extra pressure.

Kansas City faces Jacksonville on Monday Night Football with Mike Danna’s status in flux. Danna’s quad injury from Week 2 has him on the injury report, but his full practice participation suggests a real chance to play Week 5, keeping KC’s defense intact against the Jaguars.

If Danna is limited or inactive, Ashton Gillotte, Charles Omenihu, and Malik Herring would soak up extra reps, preserving KC’s defensive line depth and shaping sack and tackle opportunities for fantasy managers relying on IDP production.

Kansas City heads to Jacksonville for Monday Night Football. Charles Omenihu is dealing with an ankle issue but logged full participation in Week 5 practices, keeping his status as a game-time call favorable.

If Omenihu cannot play, Ashton Gillotte, Mike Danna and Malik Herring would be asked to absorb extra snaps, reshaping KC's pass rush and run defense while providing a clearer path to DL depth for fantasy managers to monitor.
