Patrick Mahomes, who’s been battling both an elbow and a knee injury, just fully participated in practice on Thursday. Yeah, you heard that right: full participation. It means that Week 9 elbow scare that looked *serious*? Consider it old news.

The Comeback Kid You Can’t Stop

Remember that Week 9 elbow injury? The one that had everyone holding their breath, wondering if Mahomes was gonna miss real time? Well, he’s been a full participant in *both* practices this week. This isn’t just a one-off. The guy is back to being full go, no restrictions, shaking off what looked like a significant setback. It’s the kind of recovery that makes you scratch your head and wonder if he’s even human.

Fantasy Firepower Back on the Table

And what does that mean for us watching the games, or more importantly, managing our fantasy rosters? Mahomes has already thrown five touchdowns in his last two games. Five! Even with those dings, he’s been putting up numbers. Now, with him fully cleared and showing no signs of slowing down, you can absolutely consider him a low-end No. 1 fantasy quarterback. If you benched him hoping for a clearer picture, this is your signal. He’s back in the elite conversation for sure.

So, yeah. The dude’s healthy, he’s slinging it, and he’s ready to keep rolling. Don’t sleep on Mahomes anymore; he’s proving those injuries are nothing but a memory. Get him in your lineup, because he’s about to light it up.
