Patrick Mahomes Explodes for Four Touchdowns on SNF

Monday, October 13, 12:50 AM

Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes completed 22 of his 30 pass attempts for 257 yards, three touchdowns, and zero interceptions during Sunday night's win over the Detroit Lions. He also rushed for an additional 32 rushing yards and one rushing touchdown. The veteran quarterback had a very productive evening in terms of moving the football and scoring points, now tallying 10 total touchdowns and just one turnover over his last three games. Most importantly, the 30-year-old seems to have found a nice rhythm under center, scoring at least 29 fantasy points in each of those three contests. He'll remain a high-end QB1 for Week 7 against the Raiders.

Malik Willis to Play in Preseason Finale

Tuesday, August 19, 12:31 PM

Green Bay Packers head coach Matt LaFleur said that backup quarterback Malik Willis will play in the preseason finale on Saturday against the Seattle Seahawks. The Packers also plan on playing some or most of their starters, at least for a little bit. We would be surprised if starting QB Jordan Love (thumb) plays this weekend after having a minor surgery on his left (non-throwing) thumb last week. The 26-year-old Willis went 6-for-14 for 83 yards on the first three possessions of the second preseason game last weekend against the Indianapolis Colts. Love is fully expected to be ready for the Week 1 regular-season opener in early September, so Willis is primed to open the season as Green Bay's backup signal-caller. The former third-rounder by the Tennessee Titans in 2022 played in seven games in his first year with the Packers in 2024 and led the team to two wins with Love sidelined by injury.
