Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes won’t be limited in practice after aggravating his injured ankle in Monday night’s game.
Mahomes said Wednesday that he’s able to “move around” on the ankle, which he said is sore “when you have a little bit of a roll.” He told reporters he’s looking “forward to getting out to practice and seeing how I can push it as the week goes on.”
The unbeaten Chiefs (8-0) begin practicing for a game against division rival Denver (5-4) on Sunday in K.C.
Mahomes aggravated the ankle on a touchdown pass to Samaje Perine in the fourth quarter of the Chiefs’ 30-24 overtime win over the Tampa Bay Buccaneers on Monday night. Mahomes had to be helped to the sideline but did not miss a play. He threw for 291 yards and three TDs.
Mahomes first injured the ankle in Week 8.
The two-time MVP has thrown for 1,942 yards and 11 touchdowns against nine interceptions this season.
