Mahomes hasn't run QB sneak since 2019; short-yardage struggles persist.

Chiefs QB has not run a quarterback sneak since a freak injury in October 2019. In Denver, the Chiefs failed on three straight snaps from the one-yard line, highlighting short-yardage ineptitude. When questioned about the willingness to run a QB sneak, Mahomes said, 'It's not like we're scared to call the quarterback sneak. It's just something that we haven't done. We've been able to execute with other things.' The source notes the Chiefs brass did their best to dispel the notion they were afraid to let Mahomes sneak, but their actions suggest otherwise, though an early November matchup against the Jets might not be the time for Mahomes to reintroduce the sneak.
