  • Mahomes, who shared a golf-swing video Friday from his Vegas charity event, showed a smooth shift onto his surgically repaired left knee in a clip that quickly spread online.
  • Coach Andy Reid says Mahomes is getting better every day and being evaluated day to day, and he noted the quarterback is spending about seven hours a day on rehab at the team facility.
  • NFL executive Hans Schroeder said Friday the league had no inside information on Mahomes’ recovery when it set the ChiefsBroncos for Monday Night Football in Week 1.
  • Former NFL team physician Dr. David Chao says Mahomes will not be 100% by Week 1, though he believes the quarterback could throw and operate from the pocket.
