Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver Demarcus Robinson was removed from the NFL reserve / COVID-19 list on Friday and will be available to play in the Super Bowl LV, while Tampa Bay Buccaneers receiver Antonio Brown is officially on listed as questionable for Sunday’s game.
Robinson practiced with the Chiefs on Friday for the first time since he was placed on the list as a close contact with someone who had a positive test. He had to test negative for five consecutive days before leaving the list and returning to practice.
He was third on the team with 45 receptions for 466 yards and three touchdowns this season. His return would be particularly important to the Chiefs if Sammy Watkins, who is listed as questionable in the final injury report with a calf injury, did not play on Sunday.
The Chiefs also listed tackle Eric Fisher (Achilles) and linebacker Willie Gay (knee / ankle) as out of the game.
Brown, meanwhile, was a full participant in Thursday and Friday practice for the Buccaneers, without showing the negative effects of an increased workload, according to Friday’s practice pool report.
He suffered a knee injury in the wild card victory over the New Orleans Saints and did not travel to Green Bay for the NFC championship game.
Bucs’ tight end, Cam Brate, is also listed as questionable in the final injury report. He suffered a muscle strain in his back on Thursday and missed Friday’s training. He is expected to play on Sunday, save for any unforeseen event, a source told ESPN.
Safety Jordan Whitehead, who is battling a shoulder injury that took him out of the NFC Championship Game, removed his shirt without contact on Friday. Rookie security guard Antoine Winfield Jr., who did not play against Green Bay because of an ankle injury, was a full participant on Friday’s pass. Both players were limited throughout the week and do not carry an injury designation for Sunday.
