Kelce (calf) was a limited participant in Tuesday's practice, the Chiefs' official site reports.
Due to the Chiefs' abbreviated practice schedule this week with the season opener coming Thursday, Kelce may end up being limited in all three of the team's sessions leading up to the game, but the calf issue isn't expected to keep him on the sideline against the Patriots, nor result in anything less than a normal snap count. With the Chiefs lacking in many other established receiving options beyond top wideout Tyreek HIll, Kelce should remain one of the more highly targeted tight ends in the NFL in 2017.
