Patrick Mahomes took the field for the Kansas City Chiefs’ opening organized team activity on Tuesday, marking a visible step in his rehabilitation after surgery.
The quarterback is still healing from a torn ACL and LCL in his left knee, an injury that has kept him sidelined since the latter stages of the previous season.
A Milestone in the Recovery Process
A video released by the Chiefs captured Mahomes delivering a pass while wearing a protective brace on the same knee, a visual cue that his recovery is advancing.
His primary objective remains clear: be fully available for the season‑opening showdown with the Denver Broncos on September 14.
Club officials have voiced confidence that the star signal‑caller will be in uniform for that contest, emphasizing the importance of his presence for the team’s ambitions.
The OTA session also provided a glimpse of chemistry with new teammates, as Mahomes connected with several receivers during drills, underscoring the positive trajectory of his return.
