Kansas City Chiefs Chairman and CEO Clark Hunt spoke with Ari Wolfe nd Trent Green during his annual visit to the booth on KSHB during the preseason opener against the Los Angeles Rams. He opened up about Patrick Mahomes' recovery from knee surgery in the offseason before the start of the 2026 regular season.
"Yeah, Patrick is so special in so many ways, and I think this offseason was a reminder of what a unique person he is and how much he cares about the game of football and the Kansas City Chiefs," said Hunt. "The work that he put in for seven months to get himself ready so that he could be full-go at training camp was really amazing. I know every Chiefs fan, like me, was so excited to hear that not only is he likely to be ready for the regular season, but he's been a full participant at training camp up in St. Joe."
Mahomes was in full uniform and went through his normal pregame routine last Saturday but was ruled out days earlier by head coach Andy Reid.
"Yeah, it sure is fun to see him out here today. I know he's disappointed that he's not playing right now," said Hunt. "Nobody likes to play the game more than Patrick, but I think Andy (Reid) made a good decision."
Mahomes finished the 2025 season with 22 touchdown passes and 11 interceptions in 14 games before the knee injury. He also rushed for 422 yards and five touchdowns.
