Concerns about Patrick Mahomes: The star quarterback of the Kansas City Chiefs was injured in the game against the Cleveland Browns on Sunday. In the fourth quarter, Mahomes suffered an ankle injury and had to leave the field. The Chiefs still secured a 21-7 win.
Mahomes did not return to the game after his injury and was replaced by Carson Wentz.
The 29-year-old, who was put under pressure several times during the game, left the pitch visibly limping. Before his injury, Mahomes completed 19 of 38 pass attempts for 159 yards and threw two touchdowns.
Chiefs worried about Mahomes
Head coach Andy Reid gave information about the quarterback’s condition at the subsequent press conference: “His ankle is injured. It’s not broken, but it hurts. He will gradually start the rehab part.”
Mahomes struggled to assess the extent of his injury. “The adrenaline is still working. You usually only notice this the day after. I feel like I could have finished the game under different circumstances. I think it was a smart decision to bring Carson into the game,” said the NFL superstar.
A precise diagnosis is expected on Monday. Despite his injury, the two-time MVP remained on the sidelines to support his teammates. The Chiefs put in a strong performance to secure the win against the Browns, while fans hope Mahomes makes a full recovery soon.
