Limited participation -- LB Kwon Alexander (pectoral), DL Dee Ford (quadricep, hamstring), S Jaquiski Tartt (ribs). Full participation -- LB Dre Greenlaw (ankle).

Future Pro Football Hall of Famer Drew Brees gives his thoughts on the Chiefs and 49ers: "We're talking about a super explosive offense...Mahomes' ability just to make plays when there's nothing there…the challenge that the 49ers present is that they have an excellent front seven, and lots of subbing in that can play ball too. And then their back end is very good. So there's no weak link on that defense..."

Drew Brees offers his thoughts on the Chiefs and 49ers: "We're talking about a super explosive offense – with all those weapons. Mahomes' ability just to make plays when there's nothing there…the challenge that the 49ers present is that they have an excellent front seven, and lots of subbing in that can play ball too. And then their back end is very good. So there's no weak link on that defense."

Jared Cook was very complimentary of the way both the Chiefs and 49ers get their tight ends involved with Travis Kelce and George Kittle. "Big guys that run well, run well after the catch, run well after first contact. That's gonna be tough because both of them are key in their offensive production."

Bucs linebacker Shaq Barrett believes the Super Bowl will be really close but gives the 49ers the edge because of their defense. "[Their] mentality, everybody want to make that play, everybody hungry to make that play and can see it [in] the way they play."

49ers tight end George Kitlle caught 85 passes for more than 1,000 yards this season but Chiefs defensive coordinator Steve Spagnuolo had a lot of praise for another part of his game. "We were really impressed at how good a good run blocker he is,'' Spagnuolo said. “But this guy, he's as all-around a tight end as I think we've seen all year. I give him tremendous credit for the emphasis he puts on run blocking. He looks like he enjoys doing it.''

I asked Drew Brees when he anticipates making a decision about next year: "We'll see. We'll see." Cam Jordan believes he'll be back. "At the end of the day, Drew has always this is home for him — New Orleans has been home for him. So until he says otherwise, I'm gonna keep believing he's our quarterback."
