Patrick Mahomes discusses brief injury in Chiefs vs. Jets
Nov 9, 2026
Patrick, when you get hurt like that, what's telling you right away
that you're going to find a way to get back in the game?
Can you just take us through what it
felt like and what's going on there?
Yeah, I mean, if I'm able to play, I'm going to play.
That's part of the game.
That's part of playing.
You know, it scares you in moments
when you get some pains in certain areas of your body.
And so, obviously, it didn't feel great.
I was able to kind of get it worked
on a little bit, especially at halftime,
and then I was able to go out there and play the rest of the game.
I mean, are you immediately feeling like.
Yeah, I mean, you just never know, you know.
I mean, obviously I had the knee injury last year.
You never know what's going to be the final result
or outcome of an injury.
But at the same time, you just try to let
the doctors and trainers do their work.
And so definitely something that scares you more,
I think, than anything.
But we were able to get out there and give it a go.
I feel good now.
I mean, I'll just get the win, and the adrenaline's pumping.
I'm sure I'll be sore tomorrow, but we'll get right to it.
You know, we'll get to work on it.
We'll get ourselves ready to go, and it's great to get the win now.
Now it's about getting ourselves ready for next week.
I know, I needed to.
He did that at Texas Tech a lot, so I got drafted second overall.
So I saw it a lot on TV.
I don't like being the guy that's getting hit,
so I'll try to stay away from that.
