Tests showed that Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes avoided a serious hand injury after he played through the ailment suffered early in Sunday's Week 14 contest against the New England Patriots.

"Patrick's hand is OK. It's bruised up pretty good, but there's no break," Chiefs head coach Andy Reid said Monday.

In Kansas City's 23-16 victory over New England, the 2018 NFL MVP went 26-for-40 passing with 283 yards, one touchdown, and an interception. However, the majority of his damage came in the first half, as Mahomes was held to just 58 passing yards after the break.

"It was hard for him to grip the ball and do the things that he needed to do there," Reid said of Mahomes after the game. "But he powered through it and didn't say much."

The Chiefs will face the Denver Broncos at home in Week 15.
