Why wouldn’t he be eligible for the playoffs? We took over his contract.

Not that surprises the hell out of me.
I mean...it almost has to be KC right? I wouldn't have done it, but to get a CB up to speed on a defense would require that he have some familiarity with it first.
Not sure what the 'Spags tree' has going out there at the moment. Maybe a couple of other cover 3 style teams that see a fit for him.
I've never heard of a player being on a contract that through whatever random transaction that takes place throughout the season makes the player ineligible to play in the playoffs.
It's not like this Chiefs team is a bunch of scrubs. We're a great story with an amazing QB and a coach whom players seem to adore. I'd be shocked if he doesn't report after Reid and Mahomes do their inevitable sell jobs (if necessary).

It made no sense for the Ravens to claim him off waivers because they are literally last in line. If he passed through waivers, they would have signed him to a vet minimum contract.
