The mobility of Patrick Mahomes is the key for Kansas City to make plays in the Super Bowl LVII. After suffering a high ankle sprain during the playoff game against the Jaguars, the gunslinger was under the constant scrutiny of the fans. Recently, the NFL analyst James Palmer dropped a major update throwing some light on Mahomes’ situation, explaining how he is dedicated to the Chiefs’ franchise.

The quarterback’s availability ahead of the AFC title game remained doubtful because Mahomes was unable to work out properly, limping on & off the field. Plays were altered to accommodate his limitations and help him stay fit. However, the situation drastically changed last week. Not only Mahomes looked confident but also participated in all the warmups on Friday.

“Mahomes was able to move to a certain extent. Plays had been altered during the week to accommodate his limitations per sources. This week was much different. He was making plays on Friday that were wowing his teammates’ RB Melvin Gordon told me. This pregame warmup …” Palmer wrote on Twitter by sharing an entire thread.
