While Mahomes’ status for Saturday’s game against the Texans is in doubt, a source told Rapoport that reigning Super Bowl MVP will “be fine long-term.”
Mahomes suffered the injury in the second half of Sunday’s win after multiple Browns defenders hit him high and low just as he let go of an incomplete pass.
Veteran backup Carson Wentz finished out the game following the injury and is in line to start if Mahomes’ ankle prevents him from playing in Week 16.
