Here are the latest updates on the injury Patrick Mahomes suffered in the Chiefs vs. Jaguars AFC divisional round game.

Henne has starting experience in his career, but he only attempted two passes for the Chiefs in 2022, with no completions. He showcased that on Kansas City's opening drive, slaloming around the pocket while leading KC to a touchdown. After heading to the sideline, Mahomes limped to the bench before having his knee outfitted with a brace. He was listed as questionable to return. Mahomes spent some time holding his knee and ankle and appeared hobbled as the quarter came to a close. Key fell on Mahomes' leg after reaching the quarterback late in the first quarter.

"We’ve got a lot of great people over here, but it’s going to take a lot to keep me out of a football game.” Mahomes spent some time holding his knee and ankle and appeared hobbled as the quarter came to a close.

This is the fifth consecutive season the Chiefs will appear in the AFC title game. More to come.

The Chiefs wait to hear whether they play the Bengals at Arrowhead Stadium or the Bills in Atlanta for a spot in their third Super Bowl in four years. Mahomes was still struggling to move around, but simply his presence seemed to calm the Chiefs — and their angst-filled fan base. During the Jaguars' ensuing possession, Mahomes — who had gotten his ankle taped — got into a heated argument with Chiefs coach Andy Reid and the training staff. Long before Mahomes hobbled to the sideline in pain, he was at his creative best, driving the Chiefs downfield on their opening possession. The Jaguars, who rallied from a 27-0 deficit to beat the Chargers in the wild-card round, squandered two chances to mount another late rally. Mahomes missed most of the second quarter after his ankle was landed on by a Jacksonville defender.
