Patrick Mahomes and the Kansas City Chiefs will be facing a significant challenge in Week 12 as they take on the Las Vegas Raiders. The team will be missing three key offensive weapons due to injuries: wide receivers Kadarius Toney and JuJu Smith-Schuster, and tight end Travis Kelce.
Toney, who has emerged as a dynamic playmaker, has been sidelined with an ankle injury. Smith-Schuster, a reliable target for Mahomes, has been dealing with a concussion. And Kelce, the Chiefs’ star tight end, will be unable to play due to a knee injury.
The absence of these players will undoubtedly impact the Chiefs’ offensive strategy. Mahomes will have to rely on other receivers, such as Mecole Hardman and Marquez Valdes-Scantling, to step up and fill the void. The Raiders’ defense, led by Maxx Crosby and Chandler Jones, will undoubtedly be looking to capitalize on the Chiefs’ offensive deficiencies.
