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’ second official injury report of the week:

Bucaneers

Some notes

  • Running back Le’Veon Bell (knee) and wide receiver Sammy Watkins (calf) were limited for the second day in a row. 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) was upgraded to a full participant on Thursday for the first time since the injury he suffered in the Divisional round. He did not practice at all leading into the NFC title and missed the game.
  • Safeties Jordan Whitehead (shoulder) and Antoine Winfield Jr. (ankle) were all limited again, as expected.
  • Tight end Cameron Brate was added to the injury report due to a back issue; he was limited on Thursday.
