LAS VEGAS (AP) — The Kansas City Chiefs ruled out All-Pro left guard Joe Thuney from the Super Bowl because of a pectoral injury he sustained in the divisional round of the playoffs. Nick Allegretti will start in Thuney’s place against the San Francisco 49ers on Sunday. Wide receiver Rashee Rice was a full participant after he was stepped on near the end of practice Thursday. Running back Clyde Edwards-Helaire, who missed last year’s Super Bowl after dealing with an injury, also put in a full practice after dealing with an illness earlier in the week. The 49ers were expected to release their final injury report later Friday.
