Chiefs Owner: Patrick Mahomes’ Rehab ‘Ahead of Schedule’
Mahomes is ahead of schedule in rehab from torn ACL and LCL, posting throwing videos and possibly limited offseason activity as Chiefs prepare for 2026 season opener.
- Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes is "ahead of schedule" in his knee injury recovery, according to team owner Clark Hunt, who spoke this week at the NFL's annual meeting in Phoenix.
- Mahomes tore his ACL and LCL on December 14, 2025, during a Week 15 loss to the Los Angeles Chargers, sidelining the two-time NFL MVP for the remainder of the season.
- Working with athletic trainer Julie Frymyer, Mahomes spends seven hours daily at the Chiefs' facility undergoing treatment and rehab exercises; he recently shared a video showing himself throwing footballs.
- The NFL is unlikely to schedule the Chiefs for the September 9 kickoff game against the Seattle Seahawks, Hunt said, citing league concerns about whether Mahomes will be ready to play.
- If Mahomes is unavailable for the season opener, the Chiefs will turn to Justin Fields, a five-year veteran acquired two weeks ago in a trade with the New York Jets.
