Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce is officially listed as questionable for Thursday's season opener against the Detroit Lions.
Kelce hyper-extended his knee during Tuesday's practice and has inflammation as a result of the injury. The team believes Kelce's ACL is intact, a source told ESPN's Adam Schefter after tests were conducted on Tuesday.
Designating Kelce as questionable keeps alive the possibility he could play Thursday night against the Lions. Essentially it affords the Chiefs more time to make a decision on his availability.
Kelce's brother, Philadelphia Eagles center Jason Kelce, told WIP on Wednesday morning that the two spoke Tuesday.
