Patrick Mahomes, quarterback for the Kansas City Chiefs, suffered an ankle injury during a game against the Cleveland Browns, forcing him to leave the contest. Carson Wentz stepped in as the replacement while the Chiefs secured a 21-7 victory.
Despite being taped up and walking on the sidelines, Mahomes did not return to the game. His impressive career includes multiple championships and MVP awards, but the Chiefs have faced challenges this season, particularly in the receiving corps.
With injuries to key players, the Chiefs' reliance on Mahomes remains critical. Any significant injury to him could jeopardize their success, although Wentz brings experience as a backup.
