Different linebackers, same result for Kansas City Chiefs

With a different linebacker combination on the right side of their defense on Monday night, the Kansas City Chiefs emerged as the only unbeaten team in the NFL. The Chiefs improved to 4-0 with a 29-20 victory over the Washington Redskins.

Alabama alumnus Reggie Ragland made his NFL debut as the starting right inside linebacker for Kansas City, but Auburn alumnus Dee Ford, the Chiefs' usual right outside linebacker, did not play on Monday night.

Ford (St. Clair County) suffered a lower-back injury in Kansas City's 24-10 victory over the Los Angeles Chargers on Sept.
