Travis Kelce: Tests reveal ‘ACL is intact’
According to Adam Schefter, Travis Kelce is believed to have suffered a hyperextended knee, but tests revealed he did not damage his ACL. The Chiefs will test him again on Wednesday.
Fantasy Impact
Kelce getting injured is not a good thing, but his intact ACL is a positive sign that there is no long-term issue. Whether or not he plays in the season opener against Detroit will come down to swelling, inflammation, and pain management. The Chiefs are planning on testing out Kelce’s knee again on Wednesday to determine if he can give it a go on Thursday night. If Kelce does miss time, all other Chiefs weapons will see an increase in targets.

Amon-Ra St. Brown (ankle) not listed on Lions’ initial injury report
Amon-Ra St. Brown (ankle) practiced in full on Monday and was not listed on the Lions’ first injury report of the season.
Fantasy Impact
Barring a setback or new injury, St. Brown will play against the Chiefs on Thursday evening. He’s a strong WR1 option in fantasy football.

Kadarius Toney (knee) limited at practice Tuesday
Kadarius Toney (knee) was limited at practice for the Chiefs on Tuesday.
Fantasy Impact
Toney was limited in practice again on Tuesday was part of the injury management for the knee procedure he underwent earlier this offseason. The team has already announced that he’s likely to play on Thursday night, so fantasy managers shouldn’t be afraid to play him because of reservations about his health. He may even be in line for more work if Travis Kelce (knee) is unable to play against the Lions.
