GLENDALE, Ariz. — The Super Bowl 57 inactives list is out, and the Philadelphia Eagles and Kansas City Chiefs should both be at their best. Here’s the full list of unavailable players for the NFL’s biggest game of the season.
Super Bowl 57 Inactives
The following Eagles players are inactive for Super Bowl 57: Punter Brett Kern, quarterback Ian Book, cornerback Josiah Scott, running back Trey Sermon, safety Anthony Harris, linebacker Kyron Johnson and wide receiver Greg Ward.
The Chiefs inactives: Quarterback Shane Buechele, running back Clyde Edwards-Helaire, defensive end Joshua Kaindoh, center Austin Reiter, tackle Darian Kinnard, tight end Blake Bell and defensive end Malik Herring.
Both the Eagles and Chiefs are going with just two active quarterbacks — which, as we saw in the NFC Championship, is a decision not without risk. Chad Henne will back up Patrick Mahomes; Jalen Hurts and Gardner Minshew are the Eagles’ two quarterbacks.
Super Bowl 57 Injury Report
Eagles wide receiver/returner Britain Covey was the only question mark for either team. He had a hamstring issue crop up during practice this week and was limited in his participation Thursday and Friday, but is active.
Five other Eagles players received treatment for minor injuries this week — guard Landon Dickerson, tackle Lane Johnson, center Cam Jurgens, cornerback Avonte Maddox and defensive end Robert Quinn — but were all cleared to play on the team’s final injury report of the week.
The eight Chiefs players who received treatment this week — a list headlined by quarterback Mahomes (ankle) — also had no game status designation, indicating they were good to go for Super Bowl 57.
Six Eagles players were on the injured reserve or the physically unable to perform list and unavailable: Defensive end Derek Barnett, linebacker Shaun Bradley, tight end Tyree Jackson, defensive end Jamarius Robinson, and defensive tackle Marlon Tuipulotu.
Just three Chiefs finished the season on injury: Wide receivers Mecole Hardman and Justyn Ross and defensive tackle Tershawn Wharton.
