Should I Start Patrick Mahomes?

Sunday, May 3, 5:12 AM

Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes (knee) is on track to participate in the team's first voluntary offseason practices, as reported by ESPN's Nate Taylor. Less than five months after tearing his ACL and LCL in a Week 15 loss to the Chargers, head coach Andy Reid told reporters on Saturday that Mahomes is on track to participate with his teammates, even if in a limited capacity. Kansas City's first three OTA sessions are scheduled for May 26-28, and Mahomes' expected participation is a great sign for his availability for the 2026 season opener. Mahomes is RotoBaller's QB13 ahead of his 10th year in the NFL, and his status to begin the season will affect the fantasy values of Rashee Rice, Travis Kelce, Kenneth Walker III, and the rest of the Chiefs' offense, so his level of participation is worth monitoring when the team gathers at the end of the month.
