Patrick Mahomes receives positive injury update but NFL star will still undergo MRI scan

Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes will have an MRI scan on Sunday after injuring his ankle, but initial X-rays have come back negative, according to ESPN's Adam Schefter.

Mahomes was forced off at the end of the first quarter against the Jacksonville Jaguars on Saturday, after falling awkwardly on his right ankle following a sack. Despite his best efforts, he then returned to the locker room before returning for the second half.

It didn't affect their game too much as they still progressed to the AFC Championship with a 27-20 win, and back-up quarterback Chad Henne even recorded his first-ever playoff passing touchdown. But Mahomes still finished the game, and told reporters he'll be "good to go" next week.
