ESPN NFL insider Adam Schefter appeared on Thursday's episode of 'Get Up' to share an update on Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes ahead of training camp.
"I don't think there's any question he's going to be ready for the opening Monday night game against the Denver Broncos. The real question is how effective he'll be, how close to 100 percent he'll be. Nobody expects realistically that he'll be at 100 percent," said Schefter, "But 70 percent of Patrick Mahomes, 80 percent, 90 percent, whatever he is on opening night is still better than most every quarterback in the league. But I think the feeling is he'll be out there. But how healthy will he be?"
Schefter added that a crucial move this offseason will strengthen the Chiefs around
a recovering Mahomes.
"This is why you break the bank and sign Kenneth Walker III. This is why you bring in Eric Bieniemy as your offensive coordinator," Schefter said. "This is why you plan to have the ground game, the rushing attack, as much a part of your offense as it has been in any recent season."
Mahomes and the quarterback room, along with the Chiefs' rookie class, get training camp underway this weekend at Missouri Western State University in St. Joseph, Missouri.
