Mahomes, who suffered a right patellar dislocation in Thursday's 30-6 win over the Broncos, is looking at a recovery timeline of approximately three weeks in a best-case scenario, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.
A precise timeline for the star quarterback's return to action will be speculative until the results of his MRI are available, with the length of his likely absence largely hinging on whether or not he suffered any ligament damage. In any case, it looks as though veteran signal-caller Matt Moore will be leading the Chiefs offense for a spell, beginning with the team's Oct. 27 tilt against the Packers.
