KANSAS CITY, Mo. – The Chiefs made it look simple down the stretch of the regular season en route to clinching a postseason berth.

BALTIMORE – Defensive end Mike DeVito, a nine-year pro, knows defense having played on stout units with the New York Jets before signing a free-agent contract with the Chiefs in 2013.

KANSAS CITY, Mo. – Chiefs running back Spencer Ware (rib) put in a limited practice Friday after missing the past two days and could be available Sunday against the Baltimore Ravens.
