Patrick Mahomes is hurt.
The Kansas City Chiefs quarterback got tackled awkwardly while playing against the Cleveland Browns, and things did not look good.
Mahomes was twisted in a way that a human body shouldn’t have been, as he was hit from behind and then from the front.
Mahomes took the snap and tried to move around the pocket to create more time during the play. Ultimately, his protection collapsed on him, and he had to jump while throwing the ball.
