No surprises for the two-time reigning Super Bowl champion Chiefs, who are looking to complete an unprecedented three-peat. Kansas City is healthy, motivated and ready to go with quarterback Patrick Mahomes, tight end Travis Kelce and defensive lineman Chris Jones set to lead the way once again.

As for the Eagles, one name sticks out above the rest. It’s Huff, their prized free agent acquisition this past offseason. Huff hasn’t produced in his first season in Philadelphia and comes out of the lineup. Taking his spot is Brandon Graham, the elder statesman of the Eagles’ defense.

Graham, 36, tore his triceps in Week 12 and believed the injury was severe enough to end his 15th NFL season. A Super Bowl run later, and Graham is healthy enough to play having been activated off injured reserve on Saturday. Graham tallied 3.5 sacks, six tackles for loss and a forced fumble in 11 games played this season. As a Super Bowl champion from 2017, Graham’s return is massive for the Eagles.

Graham, the franchise’s all-time leader in games played (206), addressed this week if Sunday’s game will be his last.

“Make it your best one. It’s not anything different than what I would do other than just making sure that I’m enjoying the whole journey,” Graham said Wednesday. “I just want to be there, be present in the moment where I’m able to help guys and make sure they get their best for that game too, because we’re going to need everybody. I’m just excited to still be here standing, being able to contribute towards a Super Bowl.”
