Chiefs' Patrick Mahomes: Seeking second opinion
Kansas City Chiefs head coach Andy Reid said Monday that Patrick Mahomes is traveling to Dallas to receive a second opinion on the surgery required to repair the torn ACL in his left knee, Nate Taylor of ESPN.com reports.Mahomes remains out for the rest of the season due to the injury he sustained Week 15 versus the Chargers, but it appears that the exact surgery required to repair his left ACL, and therefore potentially also his recovery timetable, have yet to be determined. Expect clarity on Mahomes' upcoming procedure, as well as a timetable for him to undergo surgery, before long. In any case, Gardner Minshew is positioned to finish the 2025 campaign under center for Kansas City, beginning with Sunday's road matchup against the Titans.

Chiefs' Patrick Mahomes: Concerning knee injury in loss
Patrick Mahomes suffered a left knee injury of unknown severity late in the Kansas City Chiefs' 16-13 loss to the Chargers on Sunday and had to be helped to the locker room, Tom Pelissero of NFL Network reports. He completed 16 of 28 passes for 189 yards with no touchdowns and one interception while adding two rushes for 15 yards and a touchdown.Mahomes went to the ground near the right sideline after uncorking an incomplete pass on the run while taking a hit with just under two minutes remaining in the fourth quarter, and he was writhing in pain for several minutes before being helped to the sideline and, eventually, the locker room. Gardner Minshew replaced Mahomes and threw a game-sealing interception that officially eliminated the Chiefs from playoff contention. However, Mahomes' health is naturally the overriding concern for the time being, with more information expected as to the severity following further evaluation.

Chiefs' Patrick Mahomes: Falters in brutal SNF matchup
Patrick Mahomes completed 14 of 33 pass attempts for 160 yards, no touchdowns and three interceptions while gaining 59 rushing yards on seven attempts in Sunday's 20-10 loss to Houston.Mahomes was shut down almost completely by the Texans' vaunted defense on Sunday Night Football, a scene we have not seen much over the course of the signal-caller's illustrious career. All credit goes to Houston's defense, but Kansas City's role players didn't offer much relief. The Kansas City Chiefs' receivers suffered six drops in the primetime loss, with notable guffaws coming in critical moments from stars Rashee Rice and Travis Kelce. Mahomes may have to pull out one of his Superman games against the Chargers in order to keep his team's bleak playoff hopes alive in Week 15.

Chiefs' Patrick Mahomes: Four TDs not enough in Week 13
Patrick Mahomes completed 23 of 34 passes for 261 yards and four touchdowns in Thursday's 31-28 loss to the Cowboys. He added 30 rushing yards on three carries.It was a vintage performance from Mahomes, who hit Rashee Rice for a pair of TDs while also finding Travis Kelce and Hollywood Brown for scores, but it wasn't quite enough to pull off a win in Dallas. It's the second four-TD performance of the season for Mahomes, and it came in tough circumstances as both his starting tackles, Jawaan Taylor (elbow) and Josh Simmons (wrist), left the game and didn't return. At 6-6, Kansas City's playoff hopes are fading fast, and Mahomes will face a daunting matchup Week 14 to try and keep them alive against the Texans' elite defense.

Chiefs' Patrick Mahomes: Zero TDs in OT win
Patrick Mahomes completed 29 of 46 passes for 352 yards and zero touchdowns with one interception in Sunday's 23-20 overtime win over the Colts. He added 30 rushing yards on four carries and threw a two-point conversion.The yardage total was a season high as Mahomes led a fourth-quarter comeback from a 20-9 deficit, but Kareem Hunt had Kansas City's only TD while Harrison Butker booted five field goals. Mahomes has a concerning 1:3 TD:INT over the last three games, but Sunday's win could be the spark the team needed to turn things around. He'll likely need to be more productive in Week 13 for a Thanksgiving tilt against the Cowboys.

Chiefs' Patrick Mahomes: Comes up short in Denver
Patrick Mahomes completed 29 of 45 passes for 276 yards and a touchdown with an interception in Sunday's 22-19 loss to the Broncos. He added three rushing yards on one carry.Even with Patrick Surtain (pectoral) still sidelined, Mahomes had trouble breaking down the Denver secondary, with his lone TD pass coming in the fourth quarter on a play in which Travis Kelce did most of the work. The star QB did at least extend his streak of games with 250-plus passing yards to seven, a stretch in which he's posted a 15:5 TD:INT, 66.8 percent completion rate and 7.7 YPA. Mahomes will try to get back on track, and revive Kansas City's suddenly fading playoff hopes, at home in Week 12 against the Colts.

Chiefs' Patrick Mahomes: Loses showdown with Josh Allen
Patrick Mahomes completed 15 of 34 pass attempts for 250 yards, no touchdowns and one interception while adding five yards on his only carry in Sunday's 28-21 loss to Buffalo.Mahomes picked a poor time to have his worst passing performance of the season after being outshined by rival Josh Allen (123.2 QB rating) in a loss that reshaped the landscape atop the AFC. It was Mahomes' first contest in 2025 in which he failed to register a touchdown, and also the first time he finished with a completion rate below 50 percent. Even with Sunday's dud, the 29-year-old heads into the upcoming bye week completing 65 percent of his passes for 2,349 passing yards and 21 total touchdowns through nine starts. Fantasy managers will have to search for a replacement signal-caller in Week 10 before Mahomes returns to action against Denver on Nov. 16.
