Mahomes misses end of divisional-round game after concussion evaluation

Patrick Mahomes watched the end of the Kansas City Chiefs' divisional-round win over the Cleveland Browns after being evaluated for a concussion in the third quarter.

Mahomes was helped off the field after being tackled on a third-down run. His head didn't seem to make hard contact with the turf, though he was taken down by the head/neck area.

Mahomes was 21 of 30 for 255 yards and a touchdown when he was replaced by Chad Henne. The Super Bowl LIV MVP also recorded a rushing score in the contest.

In the first half, Mahomes briefly received treatment on the sideline for a toe injury.

Despite his absence, the Chiefs held on for a 22-17 victory, punching their ticket to the AFC Championship Game for the third consecutive year.
