Obviously, you never want to see the face of a franchise in a position where he needs surgery, but Mahomes has been dealing with this issue for a minute or two at this point.
Luckily, it doesn’t sound too serious. Given the fact the surgery is happening Wednesday, he’ll have plenty of time to be ready for the 2021 season.
