{{#rendered}} {{/rendered}}Baker had five total tackles in the game, which was third on the team prior to his departure.
A 2019 first-round pick out of Georgia by the New York Giants, Baker spent only one season with the team before he was released in September after he was involved and arrested for armed robbery at a house party in Florida back in May.
Kansas City signed Baker in mid-November, and the charges against him were eventually dropped. The Chiefs added Baker for depth in the secondary for their playoff run, but his absence could be a serious blow to the secondary in the playoffs.
