Reid: Patrick Mahomes day to day after hurting elbow

Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes is considered day to day after injuring his throwing elbow during Sunday's 35-12 victory over the New York Jets, head coach Andy Reid announced on Monday. Mahomes suffered the injury late in the first half when Jets edge rusher David Bailey chopped down on his elbow during a strip-sack, though Mahomes subsequently returned to complete the game with 242 passing yards and two touchdowns.

Reid reported positive news regarding Mahomes, noting that the quarterback primarily needs rehabilitation to reduce soreness ahead of Sunday's matchup against the Atlanta Falcons. Additionally, wide receiver Xavier Worthy and right tackle Jaylen Moore are considered day to day with hamstring and ankle injuries, respectively. Reid also stated he has not decided whether to replace struggling kicker Harrison Butker with practice squad kicker Justin Tucker.
