Kansas City's Kadarius Toney (ankle/hamstring) saids he is "definitely" playing in Super Bowl
Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver Kadarius Toney (ankle/hamstring) expects to play in Super Bowl LVII's contest against the Philadelphia Eagles.
Despite leaving in the first quarter of Kansas City's AFC Championship game, Toney believes he will "definitely" suit up on Sunday. In a matchup versus an Eagles' team allowing wideouts to record 11.1 receptions for 133.7 yards per game this regular season, our models project Toney to record 4.6 FanDuel points.
Toney's current projection includes 2.1 receptions for 25.7 yards on 3.4 targets.

Mecole Hardman (pelvis) lands on Chiefs' IR ahead of Super Bowl
The Kansas City Chiefs have placed wide receiver Mecole Hardman (pelvis) on the injured reserve ahead of their Super Bowl matchup with the Philadelphia Eagles.
Hardman suffered a pelvis injury in Week 9 of the regular season, and while the former second-round pick was able to suit up for a handful of snaps in the team's AFC Championship win over the Cincinnati Bengals, he will unfortunately be forced to sit out the Super Bowl. The fourth-year wideout had been establishing himself as an electric element in the Chiefs' unique offense prior to his injury, and will hopefully return to the team in the offseason.
Hardman caught 25 passes for 297 yards and 4 touchdowns in his 8 games this season, adding 4 rushes for 31 yards and 2 additional scores. The Chiefs found creative ways to utilize Hardman's speed in the red zone, which helped him put up highly efficient touchdown numbers despite his limited overall touches.
Chiefs' Clyde Edwards-Helaire (ankle) officially activated off injured reserve
The Kansas City Chiefs have activated running back Clyde Edwards-Helaire (ankle) from the injured reserve ahead of their Super Bowl matchup with the Philadelphia Eagles.
Edwards-Helaire hasn't been able to play since Week 12 of the regular season after suffering hip and ankle injuries, but he will now be available for the most important game of the year. The Chiefs had already begun to shift work away from the former first-round pick and towards rookie Isiah Pacheco and veteran Jerick McKinnon, so it will be hard to expect Edwards-Helaire to have much involvement in the Super Bowl.
Edwards-Helaire came out the gates blazing for the Chiefs earlier this season with 6 touchdowns across 7 games, but his role diminished as the season went on before his injury. He finished the regular season with 71 carries for 302 yards and 3 scores, and 17 catches for 151 yards and 3 more touchdowns.

Chiefs' Mecole Hardman (pelvis) unlikely to play in Super Bowl
Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver Mecole Hardman (pelvis) is unlikely to play in the Super Bowl versus the Philadelphia Eagles, per head coach Andy Reid.
"I think it will be tough for him," Reid said. "I doubt he will make the Super Bowl." Hardman played for the first time since Week 9 in the AFC Championship Game versus the Cincinnati Bengals, but he only logged 15 offensive snaps before aggravating his pelvis injury and leaving. JuJu Smith-Schuster (knee) and Kadarius Toney (ankle/hamstring) did not practice again on Thursday, so Marquez Valdes-Scantling, Justin Watson, and Skyy Moore could be in line for larger roles in the Super Bowl. Jerick McKinnon and Isiah Pacheco also stand to benefit from Hardman's absence.
The Eagles allowed the seventh-fewest FanDuel points per game to wide receivers this season and their pass defense was No. 1 in numberFire's adjusted team rankings. McKinnon averaged 5.1 targets per game without Hardman this season and 3.1 targets when they were both active.
Dolphins' Tua Tagovailoa clears concussion protocol
Miami Dolphins quarterback Tua Tagovailoa has cleared the NFL's concussion protocols.
Tagovailoa had been in protocol since suffering his second concussion of the season in Week 16 versus the Green Bay Packers. According to Ian Rapoport of NFL Network, the Dolphins are confident Tagovailoa will be 100 percent for next season. Tagovailoa led the league in multiple categories in his third season, including yards per attempt (8.9) and passing touchdown rate (6.3%). The No. 5 overall pick from the 2020 draft will celebrate his 25th birthday in March.
Among the 47 quarterbacks with at least 100 drop backs this season, Tua averaged the third-most Passing Net Expected Points per attempt (0.29). He yielded 18.4 FanDuel points per game.

Chiefs' Mecole Hardman (pelvis) idle for Wednesday practice
Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver Mecole Hardman (pelvis) was listed as a non-participant on Wednesday's estimated practice report.
Hardman, JuJu Smith-Schuster (knee), and Kadarius Toney (ankle), and Mecole Hardman (pelvis) were all listed as non-participants for the Chiefs' first Super Bowl practice. Hardman played for the first time since Week 9 in the AFC Championship Game versus the Cincinnati Bengals, but he only was able to log 15 offensive snaps before leaving. At the moment, Marquez Valdes-Scantling, Justin Watson, and Skyy Moore are the Chiefs' primary receivers as they prepare to battle the Philadelphia Eagles on February 12.
The Eagles allowed the seventh-fewest FanDuel points per game to wide receivers this season and their pass defense was No. 1 in numberFire's adjusted team rankings.
