  "account": "Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes suffered an elbow injury during Week 9's game against the New York Jets, causing concerns about his availability for Week 10. He played through the injury and completed 23 of his 31 pass attempts for 242 yards and two touchdowns, but fumbled twice. Mahomes finished with a respectable 16.5 points in Week 9, good for a QB12 finish. If Mahomes is unable to play in Week 10 against the Atlanta Falcons, who rank 20th in pass defense and 18th in run defense, backup quarterback Justin Fields could start. Fields is not as versatile as Mahomes but offers strong rushing potential. Kansas City's running back Kenneth Walker III has stepped up in Walker's stead, recording 143 yards from scrimmage over 22 touches with four catches in their last game. If Mahomes misses Week 10, Walker is expected to see increased volume from the Chiefs' run game.",
