Reigning Super Bowl champion Kansas City Chiefs are set to kick off their season on Thursday (September 7) against the Detroit Lions, and many are questioning if star tight end Travis Kelce will be playing after he hyperextended his knee.
Kelce was listed as a limited participant during the official injury report that was released on Tuesday, and he is expected to test his ability on Wednesday for the big game. Travis' brother Jason, who is the Eagles' All-Pro center, weighed in on the situation with the WIP Morning Show in Philadelphia on Wednesday morning.
Jason stated, "Travis, this was out on the field, and I know he's got some swelling going on, but it sounds like as long as they can get that down, he's going to have a chance to go [play]. The ligaments and everything are intact structurally from what we know right now. His knee is fine. It's about getting the swelling down and then seeing how bruised the bone is because... they can be pretty painful if it's in a spot that's rubbing all the time... I think he's going to be good to go. I really do."
