Patrick Mahomes is expected to start the Kansas City Chiefs' season opener against the Denver Broncos, but an NFL **** yst has warned that the biggest challenge may not be his fitness. It could be whether Mahomes can fully trust his knee again.
Mahomes suffered torn ACL and LCL in his left knee during the Chiefs' Week 15 defeat to the Los Angeles Chargers last December, ending Kansas City's playoff hopes. He underwent surgery soon after and has spent the offseason working towards a Week 1 return.
The quarterback was kept out of Kansas City's first two pre-season games as a precaution, but he has since returned to full football activities and has not missed a training camp practice.

Speaking on First Things First, NFL **** yst Geoff Schwartz identified confidence as the biggest concern for Mahomes following such a serious injury.
