As Super Bowl LIX approaches, both the Kansas City Chiefs and the Philadelphia Eagles are finalizing their preparations for the highly anticipated rematch. Set to take place at the Caesars Superdome in New Orleans, Sunday’s showdown will see the Eagles seek revenge for their loss to the Chiefs in Super Bowl 2023. Meanwhile, Kansas City has its sights set on making history by achieving the first-ever Super Bowl three-peat in NFL history.
With both teams coming off a week of rest following their conference championship victories, here’s a detailed look at the injury reports for both sides as they head into the big game.
Philadelphia Eagles: Key players cleared, Graham’s status uncertain
The Eagles are relatively healthy heading into Super Bowl LIX, with most of the team practicing without issue. However, there are a few notable injury concerns.
Injuries and statuses:
Out: WR Britain Covey – Neck (IR)
Covey, who has been on injured reserve since Week 3, will miss the game.
Questionable:
DE Brandon Graham – Elbow
The veteran defensive end, who has been sidelined since a torn triceps injury in November, remains questionable. His potential return from IR could be a game-changer for the Eagles’ defense.
TE C.J. Uzomah – Back (IR)
C Nick Gates – Groin
No Injury Designation:
WR DeVonta Smith – Hamstring (Limited practice, cleared to play)
Smith has been dealing with a hamstring issue but is expected to be fully ready for Sunday’s game.
LB Zack Baun – Groin
DT Jalen Carter – Illness
C Landon Dickerson – Knee
RB Kenny Gainwell – Concussion/Knee
TE Dallas Goedert – Ankle
C Cam Jurgens – Back
The Eagles appear well-positioned with most key players ready for the big game, including DeVonta Smith, who has been cleared to play after limited practice.
Kansas City Chiefs: One key player doubtful
For the Chiefs, only four players were listed on the injury report ahead of Super Bowl LIX, but their situation seems more straightforward, with most players participating fully in practice.
Injuries and statuses:
Doubtful:
WR Skyy Moore – Abdomen (IR)
Moore is unlikely to play due to an abdomen issue, as he’s already listed on injured reserve.
No Injury Designation:
QB Patrick Mahomes – Ankle (Fully participated)
T Jawaan Taylor – Knee (Fully participated)
P Matt Araiza – Illness (Fully participated)
Despite Moore’s doubtful status, the Chiefs remain in good health with their star quarterback, Patrick Mahomes, and other key players cleared for action.
As both teams prepare for this historic clash, the injury reports reveal relatively few concerns. With key players like DeVonta Smith and Patrick Mahomes cleared to play, Super Bowl LIX promises to be an exciting, high-stakes showdown. Fans will be watching closely to see if the Eagles can exact revenge or if the Chiefs will cement their place in history with a third consecutive Super Bowl win.
