The Kansas City Chiefs made veteran running back LeSean McCoy a healthy inactive for the Super Bowl.

McCoy didn't appear on Kansas City's injury report, but he hasn't played since Week 15. The Chiefs will go instead with Damien Williams and Darwin Thompson at running back.

Kansas City signed the 11-year pro to a one-year deal in September as an insurance policy. He appeared in 13 games, starting nine, and produced 465 rushing yards and five total touchdowns. He also lost two fumbles.

McCoy's usage diminished during the second half of the season. Williams has started in the Chiefs' last three games.

There are no notable inactives for the San Francisco 49ers ahead of Sunday's game.

Running back Tevin Coleman, who suffered a dislocated shoulder in the NFC Championship Game, will wear a shoulder harness and be part of the usual rotation in the Niners' backfield, according to Jay Glazer of FOX Sports.
