        Chiefs QB Patrick Mahomes underwent successful surgery on his left knee on Monday, the team announced. According to NFL Network's Ian Rapoport, Mahomes needed a torn ACL and LCL repaired. "While that can complicate recovery, it doesn’t necessary extend his rehab longer than 9 months or so," Rapoport adds. We'll keep you updated on Mahomes' progress throughout the offseason, but a nine-month recovery would take him into mid-September. He'll be right up against it to be ready for the 2026 season opener.
