Mahomes' rushing upside capped post-ACL tear against elite Broncos defense.

Mahomes is making his debut post-ACL tear in a tough matchup against a Broncos defense that ranked eighth in EPA/Play Allowed, second in Success Rate, and 10th in Dropback EPA Allowed. While he ranked fifth in passing yards per game (256.2), seventh in passing touchdowns per game (1.6), and tenth in EPA/Play last season, his rushing upside projects to be capped coming back from injury despite career highs in rushing yards (422) and rushing touchdowns (5) last season.
