Quarterback Patrick Mahomes has a high-ankle sprain that the Kansas City Chiefs "don't think [is] bad," a source told ESPN's Adam Schefter on Monday. The diagnosis was revealed through testing done Monday.

Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes has a high-ankle sprain and his status for this week’s game against Houston remains in question, a person familiar with the results told The Associated Press on Monday.

Patrick Mahomes has received some clarity regarding the ankle injury he suffered against the Cleveland Browns on Sunday. When will he return to play?

Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes suffered an ankle injury against the Cleveland Browns and is week-to-week. His ankle is not broken, and Chiefs head coach Andy Reid said that injury is just ‘sore’, but Ian Rapoport of ESPN says that the fears are Mahomes has suffered a high ankle sprain, which could force him to miss time.

The injury definitely comes at an inopportune time for the Chiefs, who just started a span of playing three games in 10 days. In the days leading up to the Browns game, Mahomes had actually complained about the fact that the NFL was forcing his team to play three games between Dec. 15 and Dec. 25.

Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes exited Sunday's game with an ankle injury. Mahomes limped to the sidelines and was replaced by Carson Wentz after suffering the injury in the fourth quarter of the Chiefs' matchup against the Cleveland Browns.

The injury that forced Patrick Mahomes out of Sunday’s fourth quarter is feared to be a high-ankle sprain, according to a report. Mahomes was scheduled to undergo further testing on his right ankle Monday, according to NFL Media, but the situation reportedly does not seem dire for the Chiefs ’ superstar quarterback.

The Buffalo Bills, Pittsburgh Steelers, Houston Texans and Kansas City Chiefs have all locked in a spot in the postseason in the AFC. Meanwhile, the Philadelphia Eagles, Detroit Lions and Minnesota Vikings have each stamped their ticket.
