Overview

• Mahomes hit touchdown No. 300 on a six-yard first-quarter pass to Xavier Worthy during Sunday Night Football at Arrowhead Stadium.
• He finished with 257 passing yards, three touchdown throws and a rushing score, with Marquise “Hollywood” Brown catching two TDs and Worthy one.
• Kansas City improved to 3-3 as Detroit fell to 4-2, giving the Chiefs a needed win after an uneven start to the season.
• The milestone counts regular-season and postseason touchdowns, with Mahomes reaching it in 139 games to surpass Aaron Rodgers and Dan Marino for fastest.
• Postgame tensions included Lions safety Brian Branch striking JuJu Smith-Schuster after declining Mahomes’ handshake, which drew Dan Campbell’s condemnation and is expected to draw league review, while Brittany Mahomes’ repost of a Terrion Arnold meme and a Taylor Swift–Caitlin Clark pregame meet-up amplified attention off the field.
