The Legion of Boom won't be 100 percent healthy when Super Bowl XLIX kicks off now that Kam Chancellor is nursing a minor injury, according to NFL.com.

Kam Chancellor is listed as probable for Super Bowl XLIX, but the Seahawks are undoubtedly holding their collective breath before then.

While All-Pro cornerback Richard Sherman is dealing with an elbow injury, Chancellor suffered an apparent knee injury during practice this week. After not appearing on the injury report in the previous five practices leading up to the Super Bowl, Chancellor appeared on the final Friday report as a limited participant in practice due to a knee injury. He reportedly fell near the goal line and injured his left knee near the end of practice Friday.
Though Chancellor is listed as probable for Sunday, the Seahawks are undoubtedly holding their breaths before then. Seattle is in its second straight Super Bowl because of a suffocating defense. However, having two of the Legion of Boom members injured could affect their ability to shut down the high-scoring Patriots' offense.
Chancellor is fourth on the team in tackles (78) and is tied for third in passes defensed (6). He was named as a starter for the 2015 Pro Bowl in addition to being second-team NFL All-Pro.
