Chiefs Fans Get Encouraging Update On Health of Patrick Mahomes

Patrick Mahomes is in the NFL’s concussion protocol just a few days before the AFC Championship Game.

The Kansas City Chiefs quarterback struggled to stand on his feet after Cleveland Browns’ Mack Wilson tackled him to the ground during Sunday’s game.

On Tuesday, ESPN’s Adam Schefter gave an encouraging update on his health:

Chiefs’ QB Patrick Mahomes cleared certain steps Monday, “some big steps”, but he remains in the NFL’s concussion protocol with what is considered a concussion and it’s too early to say that he definitely will play in Sunday’s conference championship vs. the Bills, per sources.
