Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes experienced an injury scare on Sunday.
Mahomes injured his right elbow late in the second quarter of the Chiefs’ home game against the New York Jets when his arm bent backward on a strip sack by rookie linebacker David Bailey. The QB returned on Kansas City’s next drive and didn’t seem hampered by his elbow for the rest of the game.
Mahomes finished 23 of 31 passing for 242 yards and two touchdowns, leading the Chiefs to a 35-12 win. Kansas City is now 6-2 heading into a Week 10 road matchup against the Atlanta Falcons (3-6).
While Mahomes may not be 100 percent, he, at least, avoided a major injury, according to Ian Rapoport.
