Patrick Mahomes apparently avoided a major injury.
An MRI on Sunday revealed that the Kansas City Chiefs quarterback didn't suffer a significant elbow injury in Sunday's 35-12 win over the New York Jets, sources told NFL Network's Ian Rapoport.
Mahomes' elbow will still be monitored over the next few days, according to Rapoport.
The superstar passer took a big hit on a strip sack in the second quarter of the game. He left in visible pain but returned for the Chiefs' following offensive series.
