KANSAS CITY, Mo. — Kansas City Chiefs running back Jerick McKinnon is expected to play in Super Bowl LVIII, according to NFL Network reporter James Palmer.
Palmer said McKinnon's status will be a game-time decision, but he is "expected to go."
There is a good chance the #Chiefs will have RB Jet McKinnon today. He’s considered a game time decision but he’s expected to go per source. Remarkable that’s he’s been able to get himself ready for this game.
