The Kansas City Chiefs and Philadelphia Eagles have officially released their final injury reports for the Super Bowl LIX bye week.
This time next week, both teams will be gearing up for Super Bowl Sunday. Injury reports during the bye week are still quite hypothetical, and reality will not start to set in until the teams officially arrive in New Orleans, Louisiana.
Here's a look at the injury reports for each team, complete with estimated game status designations:
Chiefs-Eagles injury reports for Friday, Jan. 31:
Eagles Injury Report
Chiefs Injury Report
KEY: DNP = Did not participate | LP = Limited participation | FP = Full participation | NIR = Not injury related
Chiefs RT Jawaan Taylor's practice participation is back to normal on Friday
After participating in a limited capacity for practice on Thursday, Chiefs RT Jawaan Taylor fully participated in the team's practice session on Friday. They were able to get outdoors for this one. This all but confirms the theory that the team is holding Taylor out when they practice in the indoor facility. The team sought to protect Taylor and his knee, given the tough playing surface compared to the natural surface at the outdoor facilities.
Chiefs WR Skyy Moore's estimated game status shows his Super Bowl chances are slim
Moore logged his second consecutive day with a limited practice session on Friday. The team listed his game status as doubtful, which in this case indicates that if the team were to play a game this Sunday, Moore would be doubtful to play. His chances of being activated to the 53-man roster for Super Bowl LIX are slim, but they're not zero. The team's decision to designate him to return to practice forces Philadelphia to spend time preparing for that possibility. Remember, Moore scored his first career touchdown against the Eagles in Super Bowl LVII.

Super Bowl LIX could ultimately be decided by the battle between Chiefs LG Mike Caliendo and Eagles DT Milton Williams.
