NFL News: Patrick Mahomes (ankle) leaves Chiefs’ latest win in fourth quarter

Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes sustained a right ankle injury in the fourth quarter of a 21-7 win over the host Cleveland Browns on Sunday and was replaced by veteran signal-caller Carson Wentz.

Chiefs coach Andy Reid didn’t think the injury was serious.

“It’s not broken, that’s what I can tell you,” Reid said after the game. “He’ll literally be day-to-day as we go forward. I don’t know how much swelling he has or any of that.”

Mahomes got caught up under Cleveland defensive tackle Dalvin Tomlinson after firing an incompletion with 7:57 left in the game. He hobbled off the field and had his ankle taped on the sideline before Kansas City said he was questionable to return.

However, Mahomes never did, finishing the day with 159 yards and two touchdowns on 19-for-38 passing. Reid said he vetoed Mahomes’ request to return.

The Chiefs improved to 13-1 with the win and have a busy schedule coming up. They will face the Houston Texans on Saturday, then travel to Pittsburgh for a meeting with the Steelers four days later on Christmas Day.

Mahomes, 29, was unsure if he would be recovered for the two games.

“It’s hard to say right now,” Mahomes said. “Obviously, there’s still adrenaline rolling. And usually it’s the day after you kind of get a good sense of it. I feel like I could have finished the game in different circumstances.

“I thought the smart decision we talked about was to put Carson in. He’s played a lot of football games, and he finished the game well.”

Wentz threw only two passes, completing both for 20 yards.

In 14 games (all starts) this season, Mahomes has completed 66.7 percent of his passes for 3,348 yards, 22 touchdowns and 11 interceptions.
