Patrick Mahomes shakes off injury scare, throws for two TDs in Week 9
Patrick Mahomes appeared to injure his right elbow late in the first half but managed to finish Week 9 without incident in a win over the Jets.
Patrick Mahomes, the Kansas City Chiefs QB, demonstrated resilience after a brief injury scare as he completed 23 of 31 passes for 242 yards with two touchdowns in Week 9 against the New York Jets. Despite taking a hit from Jets rookie David Bailey near the end of the first half, which caused pain in his throwing elbow, Mahomes managed to post his sixth multi-touchdown pass game of the season.
His performance includes five touchdown throws and 563 pass yards in the last two weeks, a trend that aligns with the return of running back Rashee Rice. Mahomes continues to be a reliable fantasy QB1 option across all formats, including the upcoming Week 10 matchup against the Atlanta Falcons.
