The Kansas City Chiefs are doing everything they can to make sure they have the number one seed once again in the AFC.  Their quest for a third straight championship has gotten off to a pretty incredible start.  They’re 13-1 so far and one game away from clinching home field advantage in the playoffs.

However, there could be more help on the way for the reigning champions.

According to ESPN’s Adam Schefter:

Former Ravens WR Diontae Johnson is likely to be claimed on waivers Monday, per sources. Potential landing spots include but are not limited to the Chargers and Chiefs – if Johnson even makes it that far on waivers.
