KANSAS CITY, Mo. (AP) — Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes went to the locker room in the second quarter of Kansas City’s AFC divisional-round playoff game against Jacksonville on Saturday after hurting his right ankle while getting pulled to the turf. The Chiefs said he was questionable to return. Mahomes was moving up in the pocket late in the first quarter when Jaguars pass rusher Arden Key landed on him. Mahomes managed to make it to the end of the quarter, when the Chiefs training staff taped his ankle. During the Jaguars’ ensuing possession, Mahomes appeared to be in a heated argument with coach Andy Reid and the training staff. He ultimately threw down his jacket and headed to the locker room, returning to the sideline a few minutes later.
