Patrick Mahomes completed 23-of-41 attempts for 242 yards and two touchdowns in the Chiefs’ Week 9 win against the Jets, adding two rushes for eight yards.
Mahomes was pulled with a few minutes to go in the fourth quarter with the Chiefs up multiple scores and the Jets not all that interested in staging a comeback. Mahomes overcame an injury to his right forearm in this one. He sustained the injury on a hard hit from a blitzing New York defender who bent Mahomes’ arm back awkwardly. After getting some treatment on the sideline, Mahomes re-entered the game and seemed fine, though he was seen grimacing and shaking his arm at times. This marked Mahomes’ sixth multi-touchdown game of the season. He should remain in starting lineups as a top-12 option in Week 10 against the pass-funnel Atlanta defense.
