Deebo Samuel Injury Update
Samuel (shoulder) missed practice Wednesday, was a limited participant Thursday, and returned in a full capacity Friday. He has been removed from the final injury report and will play this week versus Detroit. It was a relatively quick recovery for the star receiver considering there seemed to be some legitimate concern about his status just a few days ago.
Mark Andrews Injury Update
Andrews (ankle) has officially been activated from injured reserve. He does not carry an injury designation into the weekend and will therefore suit up against Kansas City. Expect him to handle a large workload while Isaiah Likely returns to a backup role.
Sam LaPorta Injury Update
LaPorta (knee) has been removed from the final injury report after logging a full practice on Friday. The rookie sensation appeared to suffer a serious knee injury in Week 18 but has not missed a game since then. He should remain heavily involved this week with a trip to the Super Bowl on the line.
Isiah Pacheco Injury Update
Pacheco (ankle, toe) missed two consecutive practices before returning in a limited capacity on Friday. The team has listed him as questionable, and it appears that there is a very real chance he won't suit up this weekend. At the very least, he'll likely be a game-time decision with Clyde Edwards-Helaire in line to lead Kansas City's backfield if Pacheco can't play.
Josh Reynolds Injury Update
Reynolds (ribs) upgraded to a full participant in practice on Friday. He has been removed from the final injury report and will play against the 49ers in Sunday's NFC Championship.
Kalif Raymond Injury Update
Raymond (knee) missed all three practices this week. He has officially been ruled out for the third consecutive game, leaving Jameson Williams and Josh Reynolds in line to handle more opportunities alongside Amon-Ra St. Brown.
Skyy Moore Injury Update
Moore (knee) missed all three practices this week. He remains on injured reserve and has officially been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Ravens. Look for Justin Watson, Kadarius Toney, Marquez Valdes-Scantling, and Mecole Hardman Jr. to handle additional opportunities with Moore still sidelined.
Kadarius Toney Injury Update
Toney (hip) has been a limited participant in each of the Chiefs' last two practices. As a result, he is officially listed as questionable to play against the Ravens on Sunday. Even if active, Toney isn't a major contributor and therefore can be avoided in most fantasy and betting formats.
Tylan Wallace Injury Update
Wallace (knee) has been a limited participant in back-to-back practices, and the Ravens are officially listing him as questionable for this weekend's contest. The 24-year-old has just one catch this year and isn't a major contributor on offense.
