Patrick Mahomes QB KC

Patrick Mahomes Comes Through vs. HOU

Patrick Mahomes Comes Through vs. HOU

Chiefs QB Patrick Mahomes completed 28 of 41 attempts for 260 yards and 1 score in Saturday's win over Houston. He added a 5-33-1 rushing line.

Chiefs QB Patrick Mahomes (ankle) is not listed on the final Week 16 injury report and will start Saturday's game vs. the Texans. He was a full participant in practice all week. Reportedly dealing with a high-ankle sprain, it's safe to assume that Mahomes won't have his usual mobility against Houston. And he'd already been underwhelming in fantasy football, finishing outside the top-15 QBs in four of his last five games. Mahomes sits well outside QB1 territory in the Week 16 Rankings, but his availability is good news for the rest of Kansas City's offense.

The forecast for today’s Chiefs-Browns game calls for a 60% chance of rain with sustained winds of 15 mph and gusts up around 30 mph. That’s enough wind to impact the passing and kicking games. Throw in the likelihood of rain and we’re looking at tough conditions. We’ve bumped down our passing projections for both teams and would avoid the kickers from this game. Check out the updated Week 15 Rankings to see where all the Chiefs and Browns land.

Chiefs TE Travis Kelce managed only 2 catches for 8 yards in Sunday’s loss to Buffalo. Kelce entered halftime without a reception.
