AFC West blog
ESPN.com's Bill Williamson writes about all things AFC West in his division blog.
Gates has been playing with the toe injury but this week must have had some setbacks. Also doubtful are wide receivers Legedu Naanee and Malcolm Floyd, who both have hamstring injuries.
Kicker Nate Kaeding is out with a groin injury. Linebacker Brandon Siler is doubtful with a foot injury. Linebacker Larry English is questionable with a foot problem. Wide receiver Richard Goodman is questionable with a hamstring injury.
