The Super Bowl LVII game ended with Patrick Mahomes emerging as the eventual victor. The Super Bowl MVP led the Kansas City Chiefs to their second championship run in the last four years. However, the Chiefs were not the favorites to win the whole thing and Patrick Mahomes played a huge part in the narrative. Mahomes and his ankle troubles loomed over the Chiefs’ final game of the season, but once again Mahomes found a way to rise above adversity. He, recently, opened up about that unfortunate event.

With the session having ended, Mahomes is having a blast during the offseason, making occasional visits to celebrity events. And prior to Mahomes gearing up for another ambitious season, the Kansas legend has another stop along the way.

A relentless recovery

It was the first quarter of the playoff game between Kansas City Chiefs and Jacksonville Jaguars. The Chiefs were looking to secure themselves another win, and Mahomes ended up being tangled between two defenders on a hit. The QB1 of the Chiefs came out limping and looked visibly uncomfortable. Soon Mahomes received medical attention and eventually had to sit out during the second quarter.

This incident sparked concerns around Patrick Mahomes’ ankle as many NFL pundits felt that the Eagles would have an edge over the Chiefs. However, Mahomes proved everyone wrong and secured himself another ring. The offseason was meant for Mahomes to lay back and let the ankle recuperate. Still, there was genuine curiosity among sports fans, and recently Mahomes shared the present state.
