The answer is yes because Kansas City Head Coach Andy Reid said that everyone on the active roster including Travis Kelce has passed COVID protocols.

Their most recent game?
A 36-10 win over the Pittsburgh Steelers last Sunday behind a complete performance on both sides of the ball.
The back-to-back defending AFC champions scored on each of their first four possessions while holding Pittsburgh scoreless until late in the third quarter, amassing a 30-point lead that made much of the second half largely inconsequential.
"Offensively, defensively and special teams were all clicking. The coordinators, the coaches and the players were phenomenal, and that's the way they were all week," said Head Coach Andy Reid. "They came out with great energy and just played their tail off…Everybody kind of put it together and did great."
Quarterback Patrick Mahomes completed 23-of-30 passes for 258 yards and three touchdowns in the game and got started right away, as he led a 14-play, 73-yard scoring drive on Kansas City's opening possession that ended with a 1-yard touchdown run by tailback Clyde Edwards-Helaire.
The offense then had the ball back just one snap later when cornerback Charvarius Ward picked off Steelers' quarterback Ben Roethlisberger, providing the Chiefs with a short field that they didn't waste. Mahomes found wide receiver Byron Pringle in the end zone for a 6-yard score following the takeaway, building a double-digit advantage that Kansas City never relinquished.
It was one of two scores on the day for Pringle, who also hauled in a 16-yard touchdown grab from Patrick Mahomes midway through the third quarter. The veteran pass-catcher finished the game with a team-leading six grabs for 75 yards, marking the second-most receiving yards of his career and his first multi-touchdown performance.
Patrick Mahomes also found wide receiver Mecole Hardman for a touchdown early in the game, connecting with the speedy playmaker for an 8-yard score. The efforts of each of those players helped Kansas City race out to a 30-point lead before Pittsburgh even tallied a point, effectively putting the game away soon after halftime. Mahomes, who was without All-Pro tight end Travis Kelce on Sunday due to COVID-19 protocols, hit nine different receivers – and six players for double-digit gains – in the victory.
