Patrick Mahomes has been removed from the Week 6 injury report, according to Yahoo Sports. The Chiefs quarterback was a full participant in practice Friday, Oct. 16.

What happened

Yahoo Sports reports that Mahomes (knee) was a full participant in practice Friday and has been removed from the Week 6 injury report.

Context

Mahomes has thrown multiple touchdown passes in all four games this season, per Yahoo Sports. He has 1,037 passing yards and nine touchdown passes with two interceptions through four games, per Sleeper. Mahomes has also rushed for 41 yards and one touchdown. He is QB1 on the Chiefs depth chart, and Sleeper projects him for 18.6 PPR points in Week 6.

What’s next

The Chiefs host the Los Angeles Chargers on Sunday, October 18 in Week 6, per the NFL schedule.

Depth chart

Justin Fields is QB2 on the Chiefs depth chart with one game played this season and 1% of snaps. Garrett Nussmeier is QB3 with no games played this season, per Sleeper.

🏈 Fantasy impact

Mahomes is off the injury report and set to face the Chargers, a matchup where he has thrown multiple touchdowns in every game this season. He should be started as a QB1 this week. Sleeper projects 18.6 PPR points, and his season per-game average is 21.4 PPR points. With Rashee Rice and Josh Simmons out, Mahomes may rely on other receivers, but his recent production and history against the Chargers suggest he remains a strong start. Justin Fields would only be relevant if Mahomes were to suffer an in-game injury.
