We are talking about practice. Seattle’s Kam Chancellor suffered a knee injury towards the end of practice, but is still expected to play in the Super Bowl on Sunday against the Patriots.
Seattle Seahawks strong safety Kam Chancellor fell near the goal line and injured his left knee near the end of practice Friday, but is listed as probable for Sunday’s Super Bowl.
Chancellor was helped up, and then missed the final play of practice at the Arizona State indoor practice field, according to information provided by Pro Football Writers of America pool reporter Peter King. Chancellor left the field after practice without a limp, but with his left knee wrapped.
Listing Chancellor as probable means he should be fine to start the Super Bowl, but it also means the three Pro Bowl players in the Seattle secondary all enter the game with some type of injury.
Free safety Earl Thomas, who suffered a separated shoulder two weeks ago in the NFC Championship Game against Green Bay, is listed as probable. So is cornerback Richard Sherman, who suffered a hyperextended elbow in the NFC title game. Both Sherman and Thomas practiced all week.
While it seems that Chancellor should be cleared to play in tomorrow’s big game this clearly still some concern about his injury.
Pete Carroll says #Seahawks will evaluate Kam Chancellor in pre-game warmups but seems clear they have few concerns about left knee

The Legion Of Boom will enter the Super Bowl a little banged up, so that will definitely be something to monitor as the game progresses.
