Coming into Thursday’s season opener between the Chiefs and Detroit Lions, Kansas City refused to rule out Kelce, despite the serious injury.
Well, according to multiple reports, Kelce is officially downgraded to OUT for the Lions matchup.

LSU gymnastics star Olivia Dunne featured in a promotional video for the upcoming season of ESPN’s “ManningCast” during which she boldly roasted Peyton and Eli Manning during a mock audition for the show.
While vying for a seat on the “ManningCast” commentary for Monday Night Football, Dunne didn’t hold anything back while mocking the retired NFL stars about their age and lack of athleticism in the promotional video from Omaha Productions.
Dunne started off by asking if the Manning brothers had heard of TikTok, the social media platform on which she boasts 7.
The New York Giants needed to upgrade their wide receiver room this offseason. Other than CeeDee Lamb, the Dallas Cowboys lack another high-end option on the outside. Same goes for the Detroit Lions after Amon-Ra St. Brown. But none of those teams thought DeAndre Hopkins was the answer.
Hopkins ultimately signed with the Tennessee Titans on a two-year deal worth $26 million. The way the deal is structured, though, Hopkins only counts around $3.5 million against the salary cap this season.
Yes, $26 million is a large investment in a 31-year-old wide receiver.
One of the worst contracts in MLB history might be getting messier.
The Chiefs open the season Thursday night against the Lions, but they will be missing a key piece on defense as Chris Jones remains away from the team. The defensive lineman is entering the final year of his contract and wants a new deal, yet the two sides have not yet come to an agreement.
As a result, Jones is expected to skip Kansas City’s Week 1 game, which will cost him. Jones is currently contracted to earn $19.5 million in salary this season, meaning he will lose $1.083 million per week during the regular season as long as he’s absent from the team.
Williams was accused of domestic battery by strangulation and assault with a weapon against her wife, among other charges.
New Orleans Saints tight end Jimmy Graham dodged criminal charges from his arrest last month.
Newport Beach authorities arrested the veteran player on August 19 after finding the NFLer walking into traffic in a confused state. Graham was suspected of being under the influence of a controlled substance. He faced two misdemeanor charges, including resisting an officer’s orders.
The Orange County district attorney’s office determined Graham’s case provided insufficient evidence of any criminal act.
Graham resumed practice days after his arrest.
The Chiefs will be without Patrick Mahomes’s favorite target to open the season with tight end Travis Kelce reportedly set to miss Week 1 due to a knee injury.
Kelce, who was listed as questionable for the game, was ruled out ahead of Thursday’s opener against the Lions with a bone bruise, according to NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport. The news comes two days after the 33-year-old hyperextended his knee during practice.
Despite reportedly avoiding a long-term injury, Kelce’s status remained firmly doubt prior to Thursday.

The Kansas City Chiefs begin their defense of last season’s Super Bowl title on Thursday night when they welcome the Detroit Lions to Arrowhead Stadium.
However, how that game unfolds between Kansas City and a trendy Lions team this preseason just took on an interesting wrinkle.
