The Kansas Chiefs were the NFL’s fastest team this season with ball carriers averaging a top speed of 13.34 mph, according to NextGen Stats compiled by SportRadar.

The San Francisco 49ers were right behind them at 13.32 mph.

“If we do line up for a relay, they’d probably win,” Niners safety Jimmie Ward. “But one thing about it, this is football. There’s such a thing as a helmet and shoulder pads. And we hit. We are very physical with how we hit.”

Tyreek Hill and Raheem Mostert are the fastest players on their respective teams.

George Kittle has dealt with a number of injuries this season.

A new injury was revealed on Monday when the San Francisco 49ers tight end said he's been playing the past two seasons with a torn labrum in his right shoulder.

"So I dislocated my shoulder last year," Kittle said, "and my labrum is completely torn. So I don't get surgery on it... [The protective sleeve] basically helps me, so it doesn't hurt all the time."

Kittle has 173 receptions for 2,430 yards and 10 scores since the start of the 2018 season.

Jimmy Garoppolo said on Monday night that he received an encouraging text from Tom Brady this week.

"Yeah he shot me a text, just good luck and everything like that," Garoppolo said. "And you know just 'go handle business,' you know, wasn't anything too complicated, just 'go win.'"

Garoppolo served as Brady's backup with the New England Patriots for the first three and a half seasons of his career.

The San Francisco 49ers pushed to wear their all-white throwbacks for Super Bowl LIV, but will instead wear their standard white jerseys with gold pants.

The 49ers wore the throwbacks on Oct. 27 in a home win against the Carolina Panthers and received an exemption from the NFL to wear them again for their Week 17 game at the Seattle Seahawks.

The 49ers wore the same style throwback, except with a red jersey, when they won Super Bowl XXIX during the 1994 season.

The average ticket sold since the 49ers-Chiefs showdown was set for Miami on Feb. 2 is a whopping $6,785, according to the ticket platform SeatGeek.

The current get-in price is approximately $5,500.

“In general, it’s record-breaking demand,” SeatGeek communications manager Chris Leyden said in a phone interview. “It seems like the market is about 20 percent hotter than we anticipated.”

Leyden believes the Super Bowl droughts of the 49ers and Chiefs have contributed to the demand. The 49ers have only been to one Super Bowl since they won in 1995, while the Chiefs haven't reached a Super Bowl in 50 years.

Hard Rock Stadium is also one of the smaller NFL stadiums with a capacity of 65,326.

“On a personal level, it was kind of surprising how much demand there is,” Leyden said. “Right now, it’s looking like a 50/50 split between the two fan bases.”

Tevin Coleman suffered a dislocated shoulder during Sunday's NFC Championship Game.

However, the injury shouldn't keep the San Francisco 49ers running back out of Super Bowl LIV against the Kansas City Chiefs on February 2.

"We have got to wait until we get the stuff back, so I don't want to speculate too much, but usually a week to rest it and usually gets back in," Kyle Shanahan said. "I expect him to have a chance to play. Can't hold me to that. We'll find out more after the imaging, but expect him to have a good chance to play."

Coleman rushed for 21 yards on six carries before the injury.

The AFC Championship Game won by the Kansas City Chiefs over the Tennessee Titans averaged 41.105 million viewers. The AFC game earned a 23.1/50 Nielsen fast national average household rating/share, making it the highest-rated television program on any network since Super Bowl LIII programming on CBS on Feb. 3, 2019.

The NFC Championship Game drew just 34.13 million total viewers. Last year's AFC Championship Game in the primetime window came in at 53.9 million viewers.

The Kansas City Chiefs and San Francisco 49ers have each advanced out of the Conference Championship and will meet in Super Bowl LIV in Miami.

The Chiefs defeated the Titans by a final score of 35-24 with Patrick Mahomes throwing for 294 yards with three touchdowns and another 53 yards rushing and a touchdown. Mahomes' performance was highlighted by a 27-yard touchdown run to close out the second quarter and give Kansas City a 21-17 lead heading into halftime. 

After a scoreless third quarter, the Chiefs scored two unanswered touchdowns to open the fourth quarter and put the game away.

In the NFC Championship, the 49ers used a dominant running game to defeat the Green Bay Packers by a final score of 37-20. Raheem Mostert had 220 yards on 29 carries and four touchdowns. 

The 49ers had a 27-0 lead heading into halftime and it took a pair of Green Bay touchdowns in the fourth quarter to make the final score closer than the game felt.

The Chiefs are -1.5 point favorites to win the Super Bowl over San Francisco.

The San Francisco 49ers are 7.5-point favorites over the Green Bay Packers after the line opened at seven.

The 49ers are drawing twice as many tickets and five times more money as the Packers.

In the AFC Championship Game, spread bettors are leaning towards the Tennessee Titans to at least cover against the Kansas City Chiefs.

The San Francisco 49ers have surprisingly listed George Kittle on their injury report with an ankle issue.

He did not practice on Wednesday, ahead of Sunday's NFC Championship Game against the Green Bay Packers.

Kittle dealt with some ankle soreness during the 49ers' 27-10 win over the Minnesota Vikings in the divisional round.

Kyle Shanahan did not mention Kittle when he listed the team's anticipated participation report before Wednesday's practice.
