All week, NFL fans have been on\u00a0P<\/a>atrick Mahomes\u00a0watch this week as the three-time Super Bowl champ was in danger of missing the\u00a0Kansas City Chiefs’ clash against the Houston Texans with an ankle sprain.<\/p>\n

With the Chiefs playing two games in quick succession, there was a thought that Mahomes, despite his odd powers of recovery, might not be fit in time to take the field.<\/p>\n

But his ankle has responded well to treatment, and in fact, was a full participant at the Chiefs’ first practice of the week, so that was a big step in the right direction regarding his playing status for the Texans clash.<\/p>\n

And now head coach\u00a0Andy Reid\u00a0has dropped another big update on his star quarterback.<\/p>\n

\"Kansas<\/p>\n

“He worked out this week full and will most likely end up playing,”\u00a0Reid said. “We’ll just see how things work out.”<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\n
\n

So of course, No. 15 will suit up and with the Chiefs in a great position to clinch the AFC’s No. 1 seed, there was a thought of Kansas City playing the cautious game with Mahomes.<\/p>\n

Let him sit against the Texans, and be good to go for the\u00a0Pittsburgh Steelers\u00a0a mere few days later before a long rest until the final game of the season.<\/p>\n

But it appears Mahomes will be taking his place against Houston, and one thing that\u00a0DeMeco Ryans’ team does well is rush the passer. So Mahomes’ ankle better be 100 percent.<\/p>\n

While Reid stated that the Chiefs will see how things work out, if Mahomes has practiced all week, then it is nearly a guarantee that he will play, which in truth, we knew all along.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
