Overview
- Patrick Mahomes threw for 257 yards with three touchdown passes and added a rushing score in the Sunday night win at Arrowhead Stadium.
- His six-yard pass to Xavier Worthy was career touchdown No. 300 combining regular season and playoffs, reached in 139 games to surpass Aaron Rodgers’ prior pace of 147.
- A brief postgame scuffle erupted after Lions safety Brian Branch refused Mahomes’ handshake and struck JuJu Smith-Schuster, a matter the NFL is reviewing that coach Dan Campbell called inexcusable.
- Kansas City improved to 3-3 as its defense held the league’s highest-scoring offense to 17 points, committed no accepted penalties, and denied Detroit on both fourth-down tries.
- The milestone drew an official team salute on social media, Brittany Mahomes highlighted a pregame meme from Lions cornerback Terrion Arnold, and Mahomes credited his coach, teammates and organization in postgame remarks.
