The final injury report showed that Kansas City will be without offensive lineman Eric Fisher and linebacker Willie Gay Jr. Chiefs wide receiver Sammy Watkins was listed as questionable. Kansas City is also without Mitchell Schwartz, who was placed on IR before the Super Bowl.
Tampa Bay wide receiver Antonio Brown and tight end Cameron Brate were both listed as questionable for the game.
Those injuries are likely to have some impact during the game. Fisher and Schwartz were starters and having those holes might hurt the Chiefs against a ferocious Bucs defense.
