Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes had a brutal day against the Tennessee Titans on Sunday, and it got even worse when he suffered an injury in the fourth quarter.
Mahomes tried to make something happen on fourth-and-long with the Chiefs trailing 27-3, but he was dragged down by one defender and inadvertently kneed in the head by another. The star quarterback appeared dazed as he was helped off the field by teammates:
Here’s another angle of the play:
Fortunately for Mahomes, he was later spotted on the sideline chatting with Andy Reid. There was obviously concern about a concussion, but the Chiefs did not make any announcement about Mahomes suffering a head injury.
Mahomes was replaced by Chad Henne, likely for precautionary reasons. He finished the day 20-for-35 for 206 yards and his ninth interception of the season, which is the most in the NFL.
