Patrick Mahomes: I’m sure I’ll be good to go this week

Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes injured his left wrist on the first of his five touchdown passes in the Week One victory over the Cardinals.

But Mahomes, obviously, was able to play through it. And after he was listed as a full participant on Kansas City’s Monday injury report estimate, there don’t seem to be any real concerns as the Chiefs get ready to face the Chargers on Thursday.

Via Matt Derrick of ChiefsDigest.com, head coach Andy Reid called Mahomes “full go” in his Tuesday press conference.

Mahomes then noted that he received treatment on the non-throwing wrist, but he’s otherwise fine.

“It got a little sore yesterday but today it felt a lot better,” Mahomes said. “I’m sure I’ll be good to go this week.”

Mahomes finished Sunday 30-of-39 for 360 yards with five TDs — good for a 144.2 passer rating.

  1. I’m starting to think of him as the Dr. J of today’s NFL. Not sure his team is a juggernaut overall but he operates at another level and elevates them to contention no matter what’s around him.

  2. Justin Herbert was perfect against the Raiders and the Chargers’ D dominated, forcing 3 INTs and accumulating six sacks. Herbert may even be better than Mahomes. The Chargers know how to beat Mahomes and the Chiefs. They did it in Arrowhead last season. I look for Herbert and the Chargers to win again Thurs night.

  3. I don’t see the paper champion Chargers beating the Chiefs. Borderline playoff team with a bunch of marginal players and a coach who gets in his own head.

    I think Herbert has the look of the real deal, but neither he nor the coach nor the rest of them have proven they can close it out. Until they do, I agree with you that they are not in the class of the Chiefs. Mahomes, Brady, and Allen is who i would most want with the game on the line, in that order.

  5. I’m a KC fan and the last thing I’m gonna do is talk trash on Justin Herbert or LAC as a team. I’d like to see Mahomes not take so many direct shots in the pocket.
