Final Chiefs vs Eagles Injury Reports (Super Bowl 59)

The moneyline has been steadily moving towards the Eagles since the Super Bowl 59 odds opened 12 days ago. Philly was a +105 underdog in the opening Chiefs vs Eagles spread, but Nick Sirianni’s team is as short as -110 at some sportsbooks as of Friday afternoon. The NFL public betting trends show Philadelphia getting 58% of moneyline handle and a massive 75% of ATS handle as of 2:23 pm ET.

Eagles’ DeVonta Smith Limited, But Brandon Graham Practices in Full

DeVonta Smith (833 receiving yards, eight TDs) has been limited all week due to a hamstring injury. Philadelphia’s second-leading receiver during the regular season, Smith has caught exactly four passes in each of the Eagles’ first three postseason games this year, turning all 12 of his targets into receptions. Smith and AJ Brown are Philly’s only real deep threats and it will be a big blow if he’s less than 100%.

Smith doesn’t have an injury designation so will definitely be in the lineup, but it’s unclear if he will have his full burst downfield.

Philadelphia could get a boost along the defensive line if veteran edge rusher Brandon Graham is able to return. Graham has been out since late November with a triceps/elbow injury. The 36-year-old, who has 76.5 career sacks and is only two years removed from an 11-sack season, is not the force he used to be on the edge. But he had 3.5 sacks and 6.5 TFLs in nine games during the regular season before getting injured. He would be a significant addition to the Eagles D-line if he’s able to return at anything close to full speed.

After the NFC Championship Game, the injury that was top-of-mind for most Philadelphia fans would have been center Cam Jurgens (back), who missed both the Wild Card and Divisional Rounds before playing just 13% of snaps in the Conference Championship because his replacement, Landon Dickerson, was also banged up (knee). Jurgens has been a full participant in every Eagles’ practice this week, though, as has Dickerson, which will come as a massive relief for a team that relies so heavily on a big push from its offensive line.

Patrick Mahomes Is a Full Go

It was something of a surprise to see Mahomes listed on the initial injury reports this week with the same ankle injury he’s been battling since Week 14. It was a surprise because using the word “battling” is an overstatement based on what we’ve seen on the field. After a relatively pedestrian regular season, Mahomes has been electric in the playoffs, as he so often has been during his storied six-year career. That was especially true in the AFC title game against Buffalo, when Mahomes threw for 245 yards and a TD on 18-of-26 passing while also rushing the ball 11 times for 43 yards and two more majors.

Anyone watching the win over the Bills would have been stunned to hear Mahomes’ ankle was anything less than 100%.

He didn’t appear to taken any notable hits to the ankle during the game, either, and now he’s had two weeks for it to heal up even more.

The fact that Mahomes has been on the injury report shouldn’t factor into anyone’s handicapping of this game.

The only KC player who is in danger of missing Super Bowl 59 is seldom used receiver Skyy Moore, who has more highlight reel drops than noticeable receptions. Moore, who has been on IR since late October, had just three targets (zero catches) in six games this season before getting injured. Moore is officially listed as doubtful and his absence may be more of a relief than a worry to Chiefs’ fans.

As Super Bowl 59 approaches, fans of the Kansas City Chiefs and Philadelphia Eagles are eagerly awaiting the big game. However, both teams have been dealing with injuries to key players throughout the season. In order to give fans a comprehensive look at the injury reports for both teams leading up to the Super Bowl, we have compiled a list of players who may be dealing with injuries or health concerns.

Kansas City Chiefs:

1. Patrick Mahomes, QB – Mahomes has been dealing with a toe injury for much of the season, but he has been able to play through it. However, there is always a risk of aggravating the injury, especially in a high-stakes game like the Super Bowl.

2. Tyreek Hill, WR – Hill has been dealing with a hamstring injury that has limited his practice time in recent weeks. He has been able to play through the injury, but it is something to keep an eye on leading up to the Super Bowl.

3. Chris Jones, DT – Jones has been dealing with a wrist injury that has caused him to miss some practice time. However, he is expected to play in the Super Bowl and should be a key player on the Chiefs’ defense.

Philadelphia Eagles:

1. Jalen Hurts, QB – Hurts has been dealing with an ankle injury that caused him to miss some time towards the end of the regular season. However, he has been able to practice and play in the playoffs, so he should be good to go for the Super Bowl.

2. DeVonta Smith, WR – Smith has been dealing with a knee injury that has limited his practice time in recent weeks. However, he has been able to play through the injury and should be a key player for the Eagles in the Super Bowl.

3. Fletcher Cox, DT – Cox has been dealing with a shoulder injury that has caused him to miss some practice time. However, he is expected to play in the Super Bowl and should be a key player on the Eagles’ defense.

Overall, both teams have key players dealing with injuries, but it appears that most of them will be able to play in the Super Bowl. It will be important for both teams to manage these injuries and ensure that their players are as healthy as possible heading into the big game. Fans can expect an exciting matchup between two talented teams on Super Bowl Sunday.
