Patrick Mahomes Cleared to Start Against Texans in Week 16

Patrick Mahomes, the star quarterback of the Kansas City Chiefs, is set to play in the team’s Week 16 game against the Houston Texans. Despite sustaining a high-ankle sprain in the previous week’s game against the Browns, Mahomes has been cleared to start and has been listed as a full practice participant throughout the week without an injury designation.

Chiefs head coach Andy Reid has expressed confidence in Mahomes’ ability to play, noting that he ‘did look good out there’ during practice sessions. Wide receiver DeAndre Hopkins also commented on Mahomes’ condition, stating that he looked ‘like he always does’.

The Chiefs are currently 13-1 and are in a strong position to secure the No. 1 seed in the AFC. A win in this game would be crucial for their chances of resting Mahomes in one or both of their final games of the regular season.
