Patrick Mahomes dealt with a lingering ankle injury down the stretch of the 2022-23 NFL season. It only got worse in the playoffs after he suffered a high ankle sprain during the first quarter divisional round contest against the Jacksonville Jaguars.
Playing through a high ankle sprain, quarterback Patrick Mahomes was still able to will his team to the Super Bowl and defeat the Philadelphia Eagles. Now that we are in the offseason, we haven’t heard much about Mahomes and the status of his ankle.
Head coach Andy Reid provided a positive up while speaking to NFL Network’s Steve Wyche at the Annual League Meeting on Saturday, reporting that the signal-caller is “doing good.”
“He jumped right back into workouts and working the ankle, rehabbing the ankle,” commented Reid. “He’s lifting and running the parts that he could run, and he didn’t miss a beat on that.”
Mahomes didn’t have any ankle procedures done.
“He didn’t have to get anything done. He’s doing good, he feels good”

Barring a setback, Mahomes should be good to go when the 2024 season begins.
The 27-year-old is coming off a fantastic season, amassing 5,250 passing yards (career-high), 41 touchdowns, and 12 interceptions while completing 67.1% of his throws. On the ground, he added four more scores and was named both the league and Super Bowl MVP.
For now, Reid and company will turn their attention to the 2023 NFL Draft as well as free agency to further help out their QB.
