Patrick Mahomes exits game with knee injury

The specific timetable for Mahomes remains unclear (as it was a week ago), but Mahomes has a chance at getting back sooner than later because of the way his knee is constructed. Ian Rapoport of the NFL explains that Mahomes has naturally loose knee ligaments, resulting in only one ligament being affected by the kneecap ending up in a spot where kneecaps don’t normally go. The end result was the best-case scenario for Mahomes.

Still, it’s unknown how that best-case scenario translates to Mahomes playing football again. Per Rapoport, Mahomes has an “outside chance” to face the Vikings next Sunday, and a “very realistic shot” to play against the Titans the following Sunday.

Word on the street is that the Chiefs are planning for his return against the Titans in two weeks. Chiefs need to go 1-1 at the worst.

I think they could easily got it 0-2 if he comes back against the Titans. The Patriots already have #1 seed locked up with their Charmin soft schedule. After the next two weeks the only super tough game is on the Patriots (which they probably lose) so potentially 11-5.
