All eyes are on Patrick Mahomes’ ankle in Week 16. He hobbled off the field in the Chiefs win at Cleveland on Sunday and was initially listed as week-to-week with one less day to rest up, as this game takes place on Saturday. Books opened Kansas City as a 1.5-point home underdog — padding the point spread in case Mahomes can’t play — and early action is trying to get out ahead of any updates, moving the number to Texans -2.5. However, Mahomes is saying he's preparing to play unless his ankle is so bad that it puts him and the team in a precarious position. As a result, this spread is back to Chiefs -3 on Wednesday. This total hit the board at 41 points and has ticked up slightly to 41.5.
