Star quarterback Patrick Mahomes continued to be listed on the Kansas City Chiefs' injury report ahead of the team's Week 4 matchup against the Las Vegas Raiders.

Will Mahomes be able to take the field for Kansas City's AFC West showdown against Las Vegas at Allegiant Stadium this afternoon?

Mahomes is still recovering from the knee injury that prematurely ended his 2025 campaign, but it didn't limit his ability to fully participate in all of Kansas City's practice sessions this week.

Despite his injury, Mahomes isn't expected to miss any time. The two-time MVP will be the Chiefs' starting quarterback during Kansas City's Week 4 tilt with the Raiders.

Veteran quarterback Justin Fields will step in to lead Andy Reid's offense if Mahomes is forced to the sideline in Week 4.
