KANSAS CITY, Mo. -- After tests Tuesday, the Kansas City Chiefs believe All-Pro tight end Travis Kelce's ACL is intact, a source told ESPN's Adam Schefter.

Kelce has inflammation in his knee and the Chiefs will test it again Wednesday to determine his availability for the NFL's season opener on Thursday night against the Detroit Lions, the source said.

Earlier Tuesday, Chiefs coach Andy Reid had announced Kelce suffered a hyperextended knee during Tuesday's practice.

A New Jesey judge ruled against Minnesota Vikings owner Zygmunt "Zygi" Wilf and his family's real estate development company in one of the state's longest running civil lawsuits on Monday. After 21 years in the courts, the judge ruled that the Wilfs had committed fraud, breach of contract, a breach of fiduciary duty and violating the state's civil racketeering statute, according to the Newark Star-Ledger.

Ada Reichmann of Toronto and her brother Josef Halpern of Brooklyn, the Wilf's former business partners, claimed the Zygi Wilf, his brother Mark and cousin Leonard used "organized-crime-type activities" to swindle them out of revenue from an apartment complex in Montville, NJ.

The original arrangement over the apartment building called for each of Reichmann and Halpern to receive a quarter of the revenues after 1990. The Wilfs used outsized interest charges, advertising costs and other "grossly disproportionate management fees" to cheat the partners out of their share, Judge Deanne Wilson found.

Said Judge Wilson:

"I do not believe I have seen one single financial statement that is true and accurate. There was a consistent, pervasive method of removing funds so they would not reach the partners.

"The bad faith and evil motive were demonstrated in the testimony of Zygi Wilf himself."

The plaintiff sought a total of $51 million in the suit, which was originally filed in 1992. Judge Wilson will use the next two weeks to determine damages to be awarded.

 The San Francisco 49ers and defensive end Nick Bosa have agreed to a five-year, $170 million extension that will make him the highest-paid defensive player in history, a source told ESPN's Adam Schefter on Wednesday.

The extension includes $122.5 million guaranteed, the source told ESPN.

Among defensive players, the $34 million annual payout surpasses the $31.7 million average belonging to Los Angeles Rams defensive tackle Aaron Donald and the $122.5 million in full guarantees at signing easily surpasses the $80 million mark set by Pittsburgh Steelers pass rusher T.J. Watt.
