The Kansas City Chiefs were on the road on Sunday afternoon against the Cleveland Browns. At points this season, quarterback Patrick Mahomes has struggled. With the Chiefs having a 21-7 lead in the fourth quarter over the Browns, Patrick Mahomes got injured on a pass play and he had to be helped off the field.

NFL Fans React To Kansas City Chiefs Quarterback Patrick Mahomes Injury
There are a lot of NFL fans who do not like Mahomes. When some of them saw the injury, some NFL fans did not hold back. This is what some of the fans said on Twitter about the injury:
Clean hits too. Around the waist and the chest. Can’t do anything different on the defense.

BOTH of those hits should draw A roughing flag. Neither did. Because the Chiefs are gifted everything…

Watch him be completely healthy by tomorrow morning

Either the most injured he’s ever been or the worst exaggerated limp I’ve ever seen

There will be more of an update from head coach Andy Reid about the Mahomes injury later on. If for some reason he were to miss time, Wentz would be the starting quarterback.
The next Opponent Houston Texans
The next opponent for the Kansas City Chiefs will be the Houston Texans on Saturday. With Kansas City having another game on Christmas Day against the Pittsburgh Steelers, would there be a chance that Carson Wentz could start and give Patrick Mahomes a rest?
For now, they are the number one seed in the AFC, but would they care about going on the road in the playoffs? That is something that remains to be seen with the Mahomes injury.
