Super Bowl MVP Mahomes rallies Chiefs to win on hurt ankle

Associated Press  

GLENDALE, Ariz. — Patrick Mahomes and his ailing right ankle are headed for another Super Bowl victory parade. After aggravating the sprained ankle he suffered three weeks ago, the All-Pro quarterback led the Kansas City Chiefs to a thrilling 38-35 come-from-behind victory over the Philadelphia Eagles on Sunday, hoisting his second Lombardi Trophy and taking with it the game’s MVP honor for the second time in his career. “I told you all this week there’s nothing that’s going to keep me off that football field,” said Mahomes, who hurt the ankle in the divisional round against Jacksonville. We’re Super Bowl champs!” Mahomes helped the Chiefs end a 50-year title drought when he led the Chiefs past the 49ers in 2020. I appreciate it because of the failures,” said Mahomes, whose Chiefs lost to the Buccaneers in the Super Bowl two years ago.
