Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes will miss at least three weeks following Thursday night’s knee injury, NFL.com’s Ian Rapoport tweets. Mahomes will know more about his situation soon, when doctors have a closer look.

Mahomes suffered a dislocated kneecap, but no additional severe damage, Ian Rapoport and James Palmer of NFL.com (on Twitter) hear. With that in mind, it’s possible that he’ll miss only a handful of games.
Three weeks would be the best case scenario for the superstar. The worst case scenario is something that Mahomes doesn’t even want to think about. For what it’s worth, Mahomes is keeping things positive on Twitter:
“Awesome team win! Love my brothers! Thank you for all the prayers! Everything looking good so far! #GodisGood #ChiefsKingdom”
Even after Mahomes’ exit, the Chiefs managed to hang on and win 30-6 over the Broncos. They’re now 5-2 as they look ahead to the Packers on Nov. 27. For now, Matt Moore is slated to start that game under center.
If Mahomes misses three games, the Chiefs will only have to hang tight for contests against the Packers, Vikings, and Titans. After that, they have their Week 12 bye.
Oct 27 for Packers game.
All right I know most of the commenters here are going to be certified physicians so let’s hear what’s wrong with him
Or, you can just read the article which says “it is believed he suffered a dislocated kneecap”
It’s called sarcasm. I’ve been an EMT since 1998 and I have no idea what happened to him just by watching the replays. My point was everybody has been guessing.
Nah. If you look at the way he fell you can clearly see it’s Kidney Stones.
He lead with his helmet, should of been a penalty.
He has a boo boo
Badda Bing!
Sarcasm alert!
Fingers crossed
Madden 20
Grow up
that’s a long time in between games
You guys hear that?? Listen. How soon for the call to give Kaepercrap an opportunity???
sorry no Krappyernik
Do you know both know he will never set foot on a football field again unless it’s to coach a local pop Warner team
Just give the guy the opportunity
Who wouldn’t want a guy who was a backup QB, hasn’t played for a few years, and would be a PR nightmare?
I’d rather make love to a porcupine.
Ouch!
The porcupine would probably run away
Ask the Redskins when they pulled Josh Johnson off the street to start 3 games last year. He was out of the league for 4 years prior
Is Josh Johnson better than Kaep?
Josh Johnson didnt bring a media circus with him.
He also didn’t bring talent
He willingly and knowingly destroyed his own career. Nobody wants him.
Was pretty dumb to opt out of his contract. Though he probably has made more money from pimping political activists like Nike.
Funny how that’s the outcome for someone who stands up for what’s right
“Nobody wants him”
Hes a sell out. I dont blame him for changing his views for money. I love Dolphins but for a nice check ill go harpoon one.
Wow
Madden curse
Get well soon. From a Broncos fan
As someone who faces him in fantasy week 10, I support this timeline..
