From the article

Patrick Mahomes is set for his first action since suffering a torn ACL in Week 15 last season, but it's possible his mobility will be severely limited -- and he'll be dealing with one of the league's best pass defenses. Mahomes hasn't cleared 17.3 fantasy points against Denver since Week 17 of 2022, averaging 13.2 PPG during the four-game span. He should be on benches this week.
