After suffering a high ankle sprain in last Sunday's win over the Cleveland Browns, Kansas City Chiefs star quarterback Patrick Mahomes started Saturday's contest against the Houston Texans and played well throughout in the 27-19 win.
Mahomes completed 28 of his 41 passes for 260 yards and a touchdown, and added five carries for 33 yards and another touchdown on the ground. Although the ankle may have been bothering him, Mahomes looked like his usual self as the Chiefs improved to 14-1 on the season. Mahomes did note after the game, however, that this injury was not as serious as the one he suffered during the 2022-23 playoff run that led to a Super Bowl.
