Big Injury Update on Kansas City Chiefs Stars Travis Kelce and Tyreek Hill Ahead of Week 7

Kansas City Chiefs, after sealing a 13-31 win against the Washington Redskins in week 6 want to carry forward their winning streak in order to make a comeback in the league. However, doing so without the likes of wide receiver Tyreek Hill and tight end Travis Kelce would certainly be a nightmare for them.

Both the star players picked up an injury earlier this week. Kelce sustained a twitch in his neck while Hill tweaked his quadriceps, making them miss practice throughout the week. However, the news is still good for Chiefs fans.

Tyreek Hill and Travis Kelce are expected to play this week

Travis Kelce has made his way off the injury report after recovering from the neck injury recently and is expected to make an appearance against the Titans in this week’s fixture. While Tyreek Hill, though being listed as ‘questionable’ in the report, is still very much likely to play alongside Kelce.

This update is not just a relief to the fans but also to the Chiefs staff, as both the high-quality players in the Chiefs squad have a great impact on their game.

Chiefs’ TE Travis Kelce, who missed practice time this week due to a neck injury, is off the injury report and expected to play Sunday vs. the Titans.

And with the franchise having a 3-3 haul so far this season, they need to pick up the pace and continue with the winning streak in order to make the playoffs. The Chiefs stand at third place in the AFC West conference below the 4-2 Chargers and the 4-2 Raiders.

A must-win for Kansas City Chiefs

It will be a big downfall for the Mahomes-led Chiefs if they fail to make the playoffs this season after two consecutive Super Bowl appearances. With the Chiefs visiting the Titans at Nissan Stadium this week, they have to seal a win in order to ignite their hopes for the postseason.

Having Travis Kelce and Tyreek Hill available in the squad is a huge step up in the confidence of the overall squad. And they will certainly be looking forward to a well-poised and injury-less game up ahead. However, they are going up against a real-life titan in Derrick Henry. How will this week look for the Chiefs?
