Kansas City Chiefs star quarterback Patrick Mahomes will return from a two-game absence to start this weekend’s game against the Tennessee Titans, coach Andy Reid announced Friday.
Reid told reporters that Mahomes would play “unless something happens” prior to Sunday’s game against the Titans (4-5) in Nashville, Tenn.
The Chiefs (6-3) split two games with Matt Moore starting in place of the reigning NFL Most Valuable Player, who sustained a dislocated right kneecap in Kansas City’s 30-6 victory at Denver on Oct. 17.
Mahomes, 24, has completed 65.1 percent of his passes for 2,180 yards, 15 touchdowns and one interception this season.
