Chiefs’ Patrick Mahomes suffers injury after touchdown pass against Buccaneers, doesn’t miss a single throw in overtime win
Patrick Mahomes initially appeared to suffer a major injury during the fourth quarter of Monday night’s game against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. Mahomes was helped off the field by members of the Chiefs’ medical staff after throwing a game-tying touchdown pass to running back Samaje Perine with just over 14 minutes left in the game.

Mahomes was not touched on the play, but was seen jumping on his right leg after suffering a possible injury to his left leg. He initially did not put any weight on his leg before leaving the field with the help of two members of the Kansas City medical staff. Shortly after arriving on the Chiefs’ bench, Mahomes appeared fine as he was seen smiling and throwing a football while speaking with members of the coaching staff. The scene of Mahomes smiling on the sideline surely brought a sigh of relief to Chiefs fans.

Mahomes suffered an ankle injury on the play, according to the ESPN broadcast, but did not end up missing a game.

Mahomes, a two-time league MVP and three-time Super Bowl winner, had another big night. At the time of the injury scare, Mahomes had thrown for two touchdowns on 23 of 29 passing. He finished with 291 yards and three touchdowns on 34-of-44 passing as the Chiefs won in overtime, 30-24, to improve to 8-0 on the year.
