Patrick Mahomes: Ankle| Injured| Update

Minutes after he got his right ankle injured and was ruled out of the game, Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes was not sure if he would be available to play against the Houston Texans next Saturday.

“It’s hard to say right now Mahomes said after the Chiefs’ 21-7 victory against the Cleveland Browns. “You still [have the] adrenaline rolling and usually it’s kind of the day after when you kind of get a good sense of it. Honestly, it was expected from Mahomes to state that I wanted to, and I could’ve completed the game in different situations. But the wise decision I thought … was to put Carson Wentz in.

“Coping with the media is tough, and all you can do is tell yourself that all you need to do is find a way to get back, which makes this part the most critical. And now we just get back to the rehab part, the treatment part. And in a short time we try to get ourselves ready against a tough match.”

Injured

The Kansas City Chiefs got a scare after Patrick Mahomes limped after attempting to convert a fourth-and-three pass which ended up being an incompletion in the fourth quarter during a week fifteen game against the Cleveland Browns.

Mahomes received the center snap, then proceeded to step around in the pocket to try and buy some time. Eventually, however, his pocket broke down, and he had to leap up to throw the ball.

The pass missed its mark but Mahomes’ effort on the play was slow which raises eyebrows. He appeared to struggle standing up and after that, he seemed to be favoring his leg heavily as he made his way to the sideline.

Update

According to an NFL network’s Ian Rapoport, Xrays on Mahomes’ injured ankle were negative. It is reported that he might be out ‘week to week’ due to the injury.

Speaking in a post-match news conference, the head coach, Andy Reid, said that Mahomes picked up a right ankle sprain in the match.

“Not broken but it is definitely sore”, Reid said to the reporters. “It’s good we will get going on the rehab part of it as we go and then we will have to wait and see how he progresses.”

What has sparked concern for Kansas City Chiefs supporters is Reid’s classification of Mahomes as being injured in a flexible manner, and that this player, rather the quarterback of the won team, ‘could have participated had the circumstance been tied.’

“I was keen on returning,” Reid remarked, functionality does not account for such purposes.
