Kansas City’s victory in Cleveland raised their season record to 13-1.
They are in a strong position to secure the No. 1 seed and are already certain of their spot in the AFC playoffs.
However, with the playoffs drawing near, Andy Reid will be concerned about Mahomes’ injury in mid-December.
Kansas City would not play in the playoffs until the division round weekend of January 18–19 if they were to receive a first-round bye.
The Chiefs are trying to win the Super Bowl for the third consecutive year, which has never been done before.
All year long, they have struggled with offensive injuries.
Mahomes has witnessed several of his weapons, like as Rashee Rice and Marquise Brown, go down.
Brown, who hasn’t played since signing a free agency contract in the off-season, is expected to return from his injury next weekend.
Isiah Pacheco, a running back, has also been on injured reserve for a significant portion of the season.
He didn’t return until Black Friday after breaking a bone in his foot in Week 2.
However, the main issue for Andy Reid’s team would be a Mahomes injury.
