Patrick Mahomes has been playing through injury for much of the 2024 season. Despite this, the star quarterback has led the Kansas City Chiefs to a 15-1 record and the No. 1 seed in the AFC.
Undoubtedly, Mahomesā ankle status is key to reach the Super Bowl as the defending champions could face very dangerous rivals like the Buffalo Bills or the Baltimore Ravens.
For this reason, heading into the final game of the schedule against the Denver Broncos, Reid has made a very important decision regarding Mahomes and other stars like Travis Kelce and Chris Jones.
Who got injured with the Chiefs?
The latest injury report from the Kansas City Chiefs shows that Andy Reid is ready to rest several starters in the game against the Denver Broncos. Patrick Mahomes, Chris Jones, Travi Kelce, Trent McDuffie, Nick Bolton, Kareem Hunt, George Karlaftis, Justin Reid and Drue Tranquill are all listed as doubtful.
Additionally, Isiah Pacheco, Jawaan Taylor, Mecole Hardman and Jaylen Watson are officially out. Itās important to note that, in Mahomesā absence, Carson Wentz will be the quarterback for the Chiefs.
