NFL Divisional - With the playoffs underway, we now shift our attention exclusively to the teams still alive in the playoffs, with the exception of major injuries on eliminated teams.
Cincinnati Bengals at Kansas City Chiefs
Kansas City Chiefs head coach Andy Reid confirmed that quarterback Patrick Mahomes suffered a right high ankle sprain, according to The Athletic’s Nate Taylor. Reid added that his ankle sprain “isn’t as quite as bad” as the one suffered during the 2019 regular season, and Mahomes is expected to play in the AFC Championship. In addition to injuries suffered last week by tackle Jonah Williams and guard Alex Cappa, center Ted Karras played through a knee injury during Sunday’s game against the Buffalo Bills, according to The Enquirer’s Kelsey Conway.
