"There have been some pretty good quarterbacks who have had the same injury, and they've done pretty well after they came back. He'll get after it, and he's got good people here to rehab him. He'll be right on top of all of that."
"I always feel like the faster you rehab, the faster you can get back to practicing the sport that you know you love. I think sometimes people will pace themselves. Instead of training mode, they're in rehab mode. I think you got to get through rehab mode as fast as possible, and then you get back to training mode"
Patrick Mahomes underwent successful surgery in Dallas to repair a tear in his left ACL and a torn LCL, performed by Dr. Dan Cooper. Mahomes will begin his rehabilitation immediately. The injury occurred with less than two minutes remaining in the Chiefs' 16-13 loss to the Chargers, a result that ended the team's playoff hopes. Typical recovery for an ACL tear is about nine months, so Mahomes will miss the offseason program and his availability for the 2026 season opener on Sept. 10 is uncertain. Chiefs coach Andy Reid expressed confidence in Mahomes' work ethic and support for his rehab. Tom Brady advised diligent, accelerated rehab to return to training mode faster.
