Chiefs offensive coordinator Charlie Weis is being targeted by the Gators to become the offensive coordinator under new coach Will Muschamp, according to a pair of sources. Weis is expected to take the job, but no firm agreement is in place. Muschamp contacted the Chiefs this week for permission to talk to Weis.

The Chiefs plan to play their starters on Sunday in their season finale against the Raiders. Kansas City clinched the AFC West title in Week 16. "We're going to do what we think gives us the best chance to win," coach Todd Haley told the Kansas City Star. A victory also would secure the AFC's third seed for the Chiefs and allow them to avoid the top-seeded Patriots until the AFC Championship Game.

San Diego's loss to Cincinnati on Sunday afternoon ended the team's playoff hopes, while doing the opposite for Kansas City. The Chiefs have clinched the AFC West, ending the Chargers' run of four-straight division titles. The loss was only San Diego's second loss in its last 22 games in December.

Matt Cassel practiced on Friday and hopes to play against the Rams on Sunday afternoon. The Chiefs listed him as questionable and said they won't determine whether or not he will play until he is examined by the medical staff on Sunday. Cassel is recovering from an appendectomy that sidelined him last week. Kansas City has a half-game lead over San Diego in the AFC West.

The Chiefs don't know if they'll have quarterback Matt Cassel on Sunday when they take on the Rams. Cassel missed this past Sunday's 31-0 loss to the Chargers following an appendectomy last week. "Wednesday we'll know a lot more," Chiefs coach Todd Haley said. Cassel said he is day-to-day.

The Chiefs announced Saturday night that quarterback Matt Cassel is out for Sunday's game against the Chargers. Cassel, who underwent an emergency appendectomy Wednesday, didn't make the trip to San Diego. Brodie Croyle will start against the Chargers.

The Chiefs have reached agreement with running back Jamaal Charles on a five-year, $32.5 million deal that includes $13 million guaranteed, according to a league source. Charles ranks third in the NFL with 1,137 rushing yards this season.

Chiefs quarterback Matt Cassel is listed as doubtful for Sunday's game against the Chargers after undergoing an emergency appendectomy on Wednesday. Kansas City coach Todd Haley refused to say if Cassel would be out for Sunday's game. "He's going to be listed as did not practice today and doubtful, and that's where I'll leave it," Haley said.

Chiefs quarterback Matt Cassel underwent an appendectomy on Wednesday. The Chiefs said the procedure was a success and they expected Cassel to "return to work this week." Kansas City will face off against San Diego this Sunday in a game with huge AFC playoffs implications. A league source believes there is a 50 percent chance Cassel will play.
