Patrick Mahomes left Sunday's game after grabbing his right elbow following a sack by David Bailey, then briefly exited with visible pain before returning to play. Team medical staff sent Mahomes for an MRI after the game; sources say the scan did not reveal a major injury. Coaches described the issue as an elbow strain or sprain that will be monitored over the next few days for pain and swelling. Mahomes even broke a tackle from Bailey a few plays after the hit, finishing the game despite the injury evaluation.
