Chiefs vs. Buccaneers Wednesday injury report: Two Chiefs limited to start week

Each practice day of the season, the Kansas City Chiefs release an official injury report leading up to the next game. The Chiefs travel to play the Tampa Bay Buccaneers for the Super Bowl championship on Sunday at 5:30 p.m. Arrowhead Time.

Here is the Chiefs’ first official injury report of the week:

Buccaneers

Some notes

• Only two Chiefs were limited to start the week — running back Le’Veon Bell (knee) and wide receiver Sammy Watkins (calf). Neither player participated in the AFC title game against the Buffalo Bills — and Watkins has not played since Week 16.
• The two Chiefs players listed as did not practice are not expected to play in Super Bowl LV. Left tackle Eric Fisher tore his Achilles in the AFC Championship and Willie Gay tore his meniscus in practice. We expect a transaction on them either Friday or Saturday leading into the game.
• Buccaneers wide receiver Antonio Brown (knee) and safeties Jordan Whitehead (shoulder) and Antoine Winfield Jr. (ankle) were all limited, as expected.
• Outside linebacker Jason Pierre-Paul (knee) did not practice, but Pierre-Paul reportedly hardly practices early in the week.
