KANSAS CITY, Mo. — Quarterback Patrick Mahomes will “most likely” start for the Kansas City Chiefs in Saturday’s game against the Houston Texans at Arrowhead Stadium, coach Andy Reid said.
Reid said Mahomes took a full practice workload Thursday, the Chiefs’ final session of the week. He also was a full practice participant in the Tuesday and Wednesday practices.
“He did look good out there,” Reid said. “He moved around pretty good. So, you’re always looking to make sure they can get out the way, not to further any harm to them. So that’s what I look at.

“I’ve been through it with him before and he amazed me every time he does it. The guy, he’s been so mentally tough and just puts it into a mindset that he has going into it [from] where he was a few days ago.”
Wide receiver DeAndre Hopkins, asked how Mahomes looked in practice this week, said, “Like he always does.”
Mahomes suffered a high-ankle sprain in the fourth quarter of last Sunday’s 21-7 victory over the Cleveland Browns. He came out of the game and was replaced by Carson Wentz.
