KANSAS CITY, Mo. (AP) — A person familiar with the situation tells The Associated Press that the Kansas City Chiefs are putting kicker Harrison Butker on injured reserve with a knee injury. The Chiefs hope to have him back by the playoffs, but he will miss at least four weeks. The person, who spoke on condition of anonymity because the injury had not been announced, said the club is expected to sign Spencer Shrader off the Jets’ practice squad to fill in beginning with Sunday’s game in Buffalo. Kansas City is 9-0 as it chases a third straight Super Bowl. The Bills are 8-2 heading into their showdown.
