The Kansas City Chiefs ruled running back Isiah Pacheco as questionable for Sunday's AFC title game against the Baltimore Ravens due to ankle and toe injuries.

Pacheco didn't practice Wednesday and Thursday but was a limited participant during Friday's session.

The second-year tailback led Kansas City with 935 yards (4.6 per carry) and seven touchdowns on the ground during the regular season. He's also made a big impact this postseason, topping 85 rushing yards and scoring a touchdown in each of his team's victories over the Miami Dolphins and Buffalo Bills.

If Pacheco isn't available versus Baltimore, Clyde Edwards-Helaire would likely carry the load at running back for Kansas City.

The Chiefs have also listed linebacker Willie Gay and wide receiver Kadarius Toney as questionable for the Ravens matchup. Gay didn't practice Friday due to a neck injury. A hip ailment has limited Toney this week.

Kansas City has already ruled out four players for Sunday, including All-Pro guard Joe Thuney, who's battling a pectoral strain.
