Patrick Mahomes Set to Start Chiefs' Season Opener
Mahomes is expected to face the Broncos in Week 1 after recovering from left knee ligament surgery faster than doctors initially projected.
Patrick Mahomes is expected to play in the Chiefs' Week 1 opener against the Denver Broncos.
Mahomes had surgery on ligaments in his left knee in December. Doctors initially said recovery could stretch into October. The 30-year-old quarterback beat that timeline and worked with the first-team offence throughout training camp.
Mahomes sat out the entire preseason, a decision made in advance. The last time he opened a regular season without preseason snaps was 2020, when the pandemic wiped out every exhibition game.
