Patrick Mahomes Expects To Be Healthy For Training Camp

Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes says his ankle still isn’t ‘100%’, but that he isn’t too limited in practice. 

His ankle wasn’t 100% in Super Bowl LVII either, but he still led the Chiefs to victory in that game. His performance against the Eagles is even more impressive considering he’s still not fully healed two months later.

“Now it’s been more about just kind of managing it, getting the mobility back the best that I possibly can,” Patrick Mahomes said. 

“I wouldn’t say I’m 100 percent, but I’ve had no, necessarily, limitations. It’s just that when you go through the grind of a week of training and you’re trying to push it and go through the rehab process, but at the same time you want to make sure you’re still building. You might be a little sore on the weekends, but we’ve done a great job of pushing it to the right limit to where now I’m throwing and stuff like that and having no limitations there.

“I think running and cutting there will still be a little limitations going the next few weeks but I’m happy with where I’m at. We will keep pushing it and getting me to the right spot for the beginning of the season.

“I feel like the foot was way more serious, I guess you would say, than the ankle has been,” Mahomes said. “The foot, with having the surgery and having that cast on, really cut my mobility down a lot. So, I really had to work through that into the season that next year. With the ankle, I feel like we’ve improved, especially these last few weeks, a ton.”

“As far as the swelling that went down, finally, and I don’t have that soreness just as much as I was having it after a few days of work. With the improvements that we’re making these last few weeks, I have a great feeling that by the time we get to training camp it won’t even be any question at all.”
