Will Travis Kelce play today? Status update for Chiefs TE in Week 9
Will Chiefs TE Travis Kelce take the field to face the Jets today in Week 9? Here's the latest update on Kelce's status:
The Kansas City Chiefs listed star tight end Travis Kelce on their injury report for their Week 9 game against the New York Jets at Arrowhead Stadium. Fans are wondering if they will see Kelce take the field during this afternoon's matchup. Kelce's lingering ankle injury limited his participation in practice on Wednesday, but he fully took part in the Chiefs' workouts on Thursday and Friday.
Despite being a limited participant on Wednesday, the coaching staff did not assign Kelce an official game status, indicating that he will play against the Jets in Week 9. There is no expectation that Kelce will miss any time due to his ankle injury. If necessary, backup tight ends Noah Gray, Jared Wiley, and Jake Briningstool are ready to step in for Kelce if he has to leave the field during the game.
