Kenneth Walker III Has 2 TDs as Chiefs Beat Dolphins 24-10 After De’Von Achane Exits with Injury
The Chiefs scored 21 unanswered points after Achane exited with an injury, and Mahomes finished with 3 touchdown passes.
On Sunday, the Kansas City Chiefs defeated the Miami Dolphins 24-10, led by Patrick Mahomes' 246 passing yards and two touchdowns with Kenneth Walker III scoring both a rushing and receiving touchdown.
Miami's offense was hampered after Pro Bowler De'Von Achane exited with a knee injury on the opening drive, forcing the Dolphins to rely on backup Malik Willis for the remainder of the game.
Kansas City scored on its first two possessions, though Miami's defense eventually settled in; rookie linebacker Jacob Rodriguez recorded a diving interception of Mahomes before halftime.
Mahomes connected with tight end Travis Kelce on an 11-yard touchdown pass with 2:55 remaining to put the game out of reach, following Harrison Butker's 34-yard field goal earlier in the quarter.
The 3-0 Chiefs travel to Las Vegas next Sunday, while the 0-3 Dolphins face Minnesota on the road in their respective matchups.
