Mahomes' Knee Injury: ACL, LCL, Avulsion Fracture

Patrick Mahomes knee injury revealed more damage than initially thought, including an avulsion fracture. The Chiefs quarterback underwent surgery to repair the ACL, reattach the LCL, and fix the bone fragment. The avulsion fracture is a positive sign as it allows for quicker bone-to-bone healing. Mahomes avoided nerve damage, and while recovery will be slow initially, he is expected to return for Week one of the 2026 season, keeping the Chiefs playoff hopes alive.
