George Kittle - SIC score 87

Injury: Toe
Impact: LP, LP but toe injury is “not a concern” according to Kittle - by video, suffered apparent toe injury that bothered him slightly during second half of NFC Championship round - injury mechanism did not appear severe and he remained in the game to block during final drive and recover onside kick - no chance of missing Super Bowl LVIII and should have full ability to block and receive as usual

Team: 49ers

Joe Thuney - SIC score 43

Injury: Right pectoral
Impact: A long shot to play in Super Bowl LVIII after injuring his right pectoral in the Divisional Round - missed AFC Championship game as the main concern is his ability to protect the A gap

Team: Chiefs

Rashee Rice - SIC score 89

Injury: Ankle
Impact: FP, LP with ankle injury he apparently picked up in AFC Championship game - not a concern to miss time in Super Bowl and should receive usual snaps/targets

Team: Chiefs

Willie Gay - SIC score 85

Injury: Neck
Impact: Will play through neck strain in Super Bowl - lifted from injury report and has practiced fully the week leading up - did not play in the AFC Championship Round after aggravating the neck strain during the Divisional Round - expect Drue Tranquil to still play a big role even if Gay is active

Team: Chiefs
