Kansas City Chiefs head coach Andy Reid revealed how much Patrick Mahomes is expected to play during preseason Week 1.
Kansas City Chiefs head coach Andy Reid relayed the preseason Week 1 usage plan for quarterback Patrick Mahomes and the starters on August 7. And yes, No. 15 will be taking the field against the Arizona Cardinals on Saturday night.
“Chiefs HC Andy Reid says the plan is for Patrick Mahomes to play the first quarter of Saturday’s preseason game vs. the Cardinals,” NFL insider Ari Meirov reported on X. “Reid has long been a believer in giving starters preseason reps.”
Just after, A-to-Z Sports Kansas City reporter Charles Goldman followed up on the news, posting: “Chiefs HC Andy Reid says he wants the starters to go out and ‘do well’ but adds of snaps in preseason Week 1: ‘I’m going to keep the numbers down in the first game, and we’ll see about the second game.’”
So, expect Mahomes and the starters to be out there for the first one to three offensive drives on August 9, as we get our first taste of Chiefs action in 2025.
