After suffering an ankle injury, there is a big question mark over Patrick Mahomes’ involvement in the AFC Championship Game. Will the star quarterback be able to get back on his feet in time?

There is now a big question mark over whether he will play Sunday night against the Cincinnati Bengals.

January 23, 10:30 a.m.: Mahomes speaks out after injury

Shortly after the game, Mahomes had given Chiefs fans hope for a call-up against the Bengals. “I’m feeling better than I initially thought I would,” he said, but admitted. “I’m full of adrenaline now, of course. I’m going to get treatment right now and do everything I can to be as close to 100 percent as possible next weekend. “

The fact that he was already in action with the Chiefs relatively early on Saturday boosts his hopes: “We gained half a day because of that. In that time my ankle can continue to heal.”

He also got in touch with a tweet as late as Sunday. He is obviously already hot for the rematch against the Bengals. After all, Joe Burrow and Co. narrowly knocked the Chiefs out of the playoffs in last season’s AFC Championship Game with a 27-24 overtime win.

The star quarterback wrote on Twitter: “no quit”. So Mahomes is not thinking about an early exit from the season.
