KANSAS CITY, Mo. (AP) — Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes had to be helped off the field after hurting his left ankle while throwing a tying touchdown pass to Samaje Perine early in the fourth quarter of their game against the Buccaneers on Monday night. But the injury did not turn out to be serious and Mahomes returned for the Chiefs’ next possession. Mahomes planted his left foot awkwardly while flipping a tying TD pass to Perine alone in the end zone. He came back to lead a touchdown drive in regulation, then led Kansas City on the decisive drive in overtime for the 30-24 victory.
