堪萨斯城酋长队四分卫帕特里克·马霍姆斯在12月接受膝盖手术修复撕裂韧带后，康复进展远超医学预期1。医生最初估计他要到10月才能复出，但马霍姆斯已经在整个训练营期间与一队一起参加训练1，有望在第1周对阵丹佛野马队时首发出场1。主教练安迪·里德表示他将继续按计划进行训练。虽然马霍姆斯整个季前赛都未参加比赛，但这是他职业生涯中第二次出现这种情况，上一次是疫情期间所有热身赛被取消时1。外接手泽维尔·沃西对马霍姆斯的复出状态充满信心，称"他的意志力和决心超出我见过的任何东西"1。
与此同时，酋长队也在处理阵容伤病问题。左截锋乔什·西蒙斯因背伤缺席周三训练，后卫特雷·史密斯一直在应对臀部伤病1。为加强进攻线深度，球队从巴尔的摩获得后卫迭戈·庞茨，交出第六轮选秀权1，并从纽约巨人队获得约书亚·埃泽乌杜，交出第七轮选秀权1。
Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes appears positioned to make his season debut in Week 1 against the Denver Broncos, progressing ahead of schedule in his recovery from December knee surgery 1. Mahomes underwent the procedure to repair a torn ligament, with team physicians initially projecting his return for October, but his rehabilitation has exceeded expectations 1. Throughout training camp, the quarterback has worked exclusively with the first team while sitting out all preseason games, and head coach Andy Reid indicated he will continue his planned preparation 1.
The Chiefs face concurrent offensive line challenges as they bolster depth ahead of the regular season. Left tackle Josh Simmons missed Wednesday's practice due to a back injury, while guard Trey Smith has been managing a hip issue 1. The team addressed these concerns through recent trades, acquiring guard Diego Ponce from the Baltimore Ravens in exchange for a sixth-round pick and offensive lineman Joshua Ezeudu from the New York Giants for a seventh-round selection 1. Wide receiver Xavier Worthy offered perspective on Mahomes' determination, stating his "willpower and resolve exceed anything I have ever witnessed" 1. This marks only the second instance in Mahomes' professional career where he has missed all preseason contests, the previous occurrence taking place during the pandemic when all warm-up games were cancelled 1.
