Patrick Mahomes Likely to Be Designated As Questionable, Expect Independent Neurologist To Clear Him By Sunday

Although we fully expect Patrick Mahomes to be questionable for the Conference Championship, do not panic and we still believe he will suit up. When the report comes out he will be listed as questionable because the report comes out right after practice. If he is listed as limited practice all week or even if he is full practice all week he will still be listed as questionable because he has yet to see the independent neurologist. He cannot be cleared by the neurologist until he has a practiced in full and if he is listed as full practice on Friday he won't see the neurologist till after practice hence the reason he will likely be listed as questionable. If he is limited in practice on Friday, he will need to practice in full on Saturday and then see the neurologist after. The reason we think he will be cleared before game-time is that he has progressed through concussion protocol rather quickly. We do not believe the Chiefs are gaming the system and all signs are pointing to Mahomes being cleared by Sunday.
