Carson Wentz avoided an injury walking to Chiefs camp and Patrick Mahomes wouldn't let him hear the end of it

Carson Wentz has had some rough injury luck during his NFL career, and he never regained his MVP-caliber form after a 2017 ACL tear with the Eagles. But nothing would have topped getting injured while walking *to* training camp.

That’s nearly what happened on Sunday. But Wentz can be thankful that he has a great teammate like Patrick Mahomes who will, uh, ruthlessly make fun of him.

Wentz — who signed a one-year deal with the Chiefs this offseason — was walking to camp with his fellow quarterback group. There appeared to be a change in materials of the turf walkway to practice, and Wentz got that turf transition at the worst spot. His knee almost buckled, and the entire quarterback group couldn’t believe Wentz almost got taken out before training camp really even started.

Mahomes shouted once he realized that Wentz was fine:

“Are you kidding me?!”

He then told the social team to post the video, which they did.

Wentz has to watch his step for now on. That could have been so bad.
