Patrick Mahomes exits late as Chiefs' postseason hopes end

KANSAS CITY, Mo. -- Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes suffered a left knee injury with less than two minutes left in Sunday's 16-13 loss to the Los Angeles Chargers and will undergo an MRI either Sunday night or Monday, according to coach Andy Reid.

Mahomes was trying to rally the Chiefs in the closing seconds, but instead their comeback -- and playoff -- hopes ended, as Kansas City was officially eliminated from postseason contention with the loss.

Mahomes was hurt after he scrambled out of the pocket and was chased down by Chargers defensive end Da'Shawn Hand before throwing an incompletion.
