Goff, Gurley, Smith will rest in Week 17

-

The NFC West champion Rams plan to rest quarterbac­k Jared Goff, running back Todd Gurley and defensive tackle Aaron Donald in their regular-season finale against the 49ers on Sunday. Coach Sean McVay also said Wednesday that left tackle Andrew

Whitworth and center John Sullivan won’t play. Los Angeles has clinched a first-round home playoff game, can’t climb into a top-two seed and bye and McVay says it’s relatively unimportan­t whether the Rams finish with the third seed or the fourth seed.

The Chiefs will start quarterbac­k Patrick Ma

homes against the Broncos while Alex Smith rests, coach Andy Reid said. Kansas City has clinched the AFC West and is locked into the No. 4 seed. From staff and wire reports
