Or if like 4 of those things happen.

And that leaves us with a Mahomes in his 30s taking a ton of blows to the head and body. Thus shortening his career and maybe cutting his prime in half.
The most valuable asset in the organization is Patrick Mahomes. I know what it's like to be in your mid 30s. The body doesn't recover from punishment like it used to. Mahomes got away with taking a lot of abuse last year because he is 29. That won't fly in the future.
Better start taking his blind side seriously.
