Patrick Mahomes Gives Update on Injury Timeline, Still Aiming for Week 1

Mahomes has cleared offseason rehab checkpoints and is working toward full team drills before aiming to return for Week 1.

  • Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes returned to the field this week during the team's OTAs, participating in limited workouts between Tuesday and Thursday.
