Kansas City Chiefs defensive tackle Chris Jones is active for his team's AFC Championship Game against the Tennessee Titans.

The Chiefs weren't optimistic that Jones would feature in the contest, but the defensive lineman planned to test his calf injury pregame, NFL.com's Adam Maya reported earlier Sunday.

Jones, 25, was sidelined against the Houston Texans last Sunday and was listed as questionable on Friday's injury report.

Despite missing three games in 2019, Jones led the Chiefs in sacks for the second straight year. The eruptive pass-rusher has amassed 24.5 sacks since 2018.

Running back LeSean McCoy, who was labeled as questionable due to illness, was ruled out Sunday.
