Tyrann Mathieu Shares Thoughts on Patrick Mahomes’ Injury Recovery

Patrick Mahomes, the star quarterback for the Kansas City Chiefs, is making progress toward returning to the field following a serious knee injury that prematurely ended his 2025 regular-season campaign.

The recovery process for the former Texas Tech Red Raider has drawn attention from former teammates, including legendary defensive back Tyrann Mathieu. During a recent episode of the In the Bayou with Tyrann Mathieu podcast, Mathieu discussed the timeline for Mahomes’ return to action.

Recovery Timeline and Expectations

Mahomes has already undergone surgery to address the knee injury. Mathieu described the recovery timeline the quarterback is currently on track to achieve as unbelievably quick.

According to Mathieu, there is a possibility that Mahomes could participate in the Kansas City Chiefs’ Organized Team Activities (OTAs) later this summer.

The potential for Mahomes to join OTAs would mark a significant milestone in his rehabilitation process as the organization prepares for the 2026 season.
