Patrick Mahomes and the Chiefs will be missing three key offensive weapons when they take on the Raiders in Week 12 in Las Vegas.

On Saturday, the team announced that starting wide receiver Kadarius Toney (ankle/hip) as well as key third-down running back Jerick McKinnon (groin) are both out on Sunday. In addition, the team also placed slot wideout and returner Mecole Hardman (thumb) on injured reserve.

McKinnon, who has 19 receptions for 155 yards and three touchdowns, is a versatile weapon working out of the backfield for Mahomes. Toney, who has 22 receptions for 139 yards and a touchdown, leaves the club down one of its best home run threats.

Fantasy managers in need of bye week or injury replacements should look to utilize wideouts Rashee Rice and Justin Watson, while running back Clyde Edwards-Helaire could be a valuable flex option.

Kansas City, who has won the last five meetings against the Raiders, have beaten their AFC West rival in 10 of the last 11 overall.
