Patrick Mahomes, the gridiron wizard pulled off a feat that would make Merlin proud. Who else can go with a leg injury and then go ahead and dash a 25-yard scamper if not for a wizard? If you missed the gridiron action, the Kansas City Chiefs’ darling QB suffered an ankle injury during their week 4 match-up against the Chicago Bears. And just a week later, this NFL MVP is up about and running across the MetLife Stadium.

Super Bowl victories? They’re not handed out like candy; they demand guts and determination, and Mahomes has them in spades!

Patrick Mahomes and his right ankle mystery

Speaking about odds, what is up with Patrick Mahomes’ right ankle? Well, Mahomes is reeling off a hard-earned victory against the New York Jets at the Jets’ home turf.

During the game, Mahomes went all-in with a 25-yard dash, facing a third-and-22 challenge with just 6 minutes left in the 4th quarter. In a post-game presser, the QB sensation spilled the beans on what was going through his mind as the Chiefs tried to break the tie. When asked about his choice to run instead of pass, he flashed that trademark grin and cheekily answered, “I’ve told a lot of people I’m faster than people think, I don’t run pretty so people think I’m slow but I move a little bit better than people think.”
