Mahomes Defies Odds to Start Week 1 After Record-Breaking ACL Recovery

Patrick Mahomes returns to the starting lineup for the Kansas City Chiefs' season opener against the Denver Broncos just nine months after tearing his ACL and LCL. His rapid recovery, which saw him take every first-team rep in training camp, is being hailed as historic by team leadership. Mahomes skipped the preseason to focus on rehab, passing a critical stress test in July before joining full practices. While he appears ready to play, he remains cautious about long-term knee health, having previously missed the final three games of the 2025 season.

Garrett: Knee injury more serious after quiet Rams debut

Myles Garrett admitted his knee injury is more serious than he’d shown after a quiet season opener for the Rams in Melbourne, finishing without a tackle in the 27-7 loss to the 49ers. He didn’t specify which knee and vowed to recover to return to his top form. LA’s revamped defense and underwhelming offense struggled overall, though Aaron Donald is expected to join the lineup soon, providing a boost as Garrett works back and the team looks to rebound in Week 2 against the Giants.

Maye finished 23-for-33 for 178 yards and a TD to Eli Raridon, and Jaxon Smith-Njigba added 122 receiving yards including a pivotal 45-yard TD catch. AJ Brown left with an ankle injury as Seattle’s defense closed it out.
