Chiefs QB Patrick Mahomes will "most likely" play Week 16

Patrick Mahomes will “most likely end up playing” on Saturday, per Coach Reid.

There’s also a “good chance” Hollywood Brown will play.

Fantasy Impact:

We'd like a little more reassurance here, but at least we have some hope that Mahomes will be available to elevate the offense. Mahomes should be benched in favor of a streamer in most fantasy formats.

Chiefs QB Patrick Mahomes a full participant for second straight day

For a second straight day, the Chiefs listed Patrick Mahomes as a full participant in practice.

Fantasy Impact:

Obviously a great sign for the Chiefs pass-catchers and Mahomes himself. The quarterback should likely be benched in your fantasy semi-finals in a not-great matchup against the Texans in a game that has seen its over/under drop to 41.5.

Chiefs QB Patrick Mahomes (ankle) listed as full for Monday's practice

Patrick Mahomes is listed as a full participant on the team’s first injury report of the week.

Fantasy Impact:

It was a pretty positive outcome for fantasy owners counting on Mahomes in Week 16. The story said Reid spoke to reporters before practice and said they would see what Mahomes was able to do during a light practice. The answer was that he did everything that the Chiefs asked of him, the story pointed out. Keep in mind it was a light workout. It's possible Mahomes is listed as limited later in the week. As we stated earlier today, we're still some time away from Saturday, so it will be worth monitoring right up to game time. Owners may still want to have a backup plan in place.

Rapoport: Possibility Chiefs QB Patrick Mahomes could miss Week 16

Tests results indicated Patrick Mahomes is dealing with a high ankle sprain and there's a "possibility" he could miss Week 16.

Fantasy Impact:

Rapoport's messaging in this clip can be taken a couple of different ways. The positive view is Mahomes "possibly" missing this week can almost be taken there's a better chance he plays. The situation reminded Rapoport of the playoff game against the Jags a few years ago, where Mahomes didn't finish the game the week before, but came back and played the following week. Rapoport added that, long-term, Mahomes will be fine, and that Mahomes' body is "built differently," so it won't be the normal 4-6 week recovery time for a high ankle sprain. We're a long way from Saturday's game, but if Mahomes can't play, Wentz would get the start against the Texans. Mahomes owners should probably be thinking of a backup plan now in case he's unable to play, so picking up Wentz may not be a bad idea if you own Mahomes in deeper leagues, or two-QB and superflex leagues.
