You drive off the back foot. It will affect him. How much is the question.

They will have to find the best tape job for him. Tight enough to prevent as much separation of the tibia and fibula when planting that foot while also enough flexion to allow him to run.

Very manageable injury for a QB that is not a run first QB. All about pain management and pain tolerance.

If he played any other position it would be doubtful he would be playing.

Not sure about that. He was struggling to get any velocity on the ball after the injury on Saturday. I don’t remember the same velocity issue with his left ankle in 2019. I think that right ankle is pretty important to help him drive the ball around the field with proper NFL level velocity.

I would say to shoot him up with horse cocaine but I have a sneaking suspicion his body is already producing it naturally.

Do you even throw, bro?

This is about the best update we could’ve conceivably gotten, although you’ve gotta discount it on some level.

They aren't going to make him sound healthier than he really is, its the exact opposite I think. So this is very very good news IMO.

Taking anti-inflammatories work well but they are hell with your stomach. They will probably have him popping those all week while they ice and treat it.

He was shitty, but it was another shitty OL that did it. Andrew Wiley stepped on him lol.

No, it was Erving.

This is the NFL, they aren't going to mega dose him with ibuprofen, they got the good shit.

You heal faster by not taking that shit.

Please let him rip the Bengals apart Sunday! Great news thanks for sharing.

While this is all fine and good, this is the other ankle. You would rather it be the other one but we can likely surmise this is definitely not a grade 3 and probably not a grade 2 high ankle sprain.

Mahomes is so tough.

I'm of the belief (I'm going to be killed for this) that we need to come out with a running game plan.

I think we can run the ball down their throats, and we need to to kill their pass rush.

Mahomes is so tough.

It’s hard to say. He ran around 500 yards in the Super Bowl on a toe that needed surgery. Like you said, he’s pretty damn tough.

I did find it concerning that he was struggling to put velocity on the ball Saturday. If that’s still a major issue in the next game, it puts him and the team in a tough spot. You cannot expect to beat a great team like Cincy if your QB is lobbing weak high school throws around the field. Begging for trouble there.
