If you held your breath Sunday, here's the update. Jets rookie David Bailey's strip-sack left Patrick Mahomes in obvious pain in his right elbow. He was back on the field before halftime.

Then came the tests. ESPN's Ian Rapoport said Sunday night an MRI revealed no major injury, and WIBW 580 reported postgame tests showed no major injury. Coach Andy Reid is expected to give an update at his noon news conference Monday.

“Once I throw the football, I knew hopefully it wasn't ligament type stuff. It was more muscle type stuff.”

The Wrap

Sunday's Chiefs pregame had something big overhead. For the "Salute to Service" game against the Jets, a C-130H Hercules flyover from Rosecrans Air National Guard Base in St. Joseph was joined by two A-10 Thunderbolts from Whiteman Air Force Base in Knobnoster. Now that's an entrance.
