Mandatory Credit: Jay Biggerstaff-USA TODAY Sports<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p>It remains unclear if Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes will be suiting up for Saturday\u2019s game against the Houston Texans as he battles a sprained ankle. If he does, the Texans are making it quite clear that they will not be showing him any mercy.<\/p>\n<p>Mahomes made it clear on Tuesday that he wants to be able to avoid the Texans pass rush and have a full gameplan at his disposal if he does play against Houston in Week 16. The quarterback certainly made it sound like he is determined to play, however.<\/p>\n<p>At least one Texans defensive player seemed to welcome that news. Defensive tackle Tim Settle had a very firm warning for Mahomes when it comes to the health of the quarterback\u2019s ankle.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cPat\u2019s a little banged up. I don\u2019t know if he\u2019s going to play or not. I hope he\u2019s mobile enough, because we coming in Arrowhead,\u201d Settle said. \u201cPat better make a good decision. I ain\u2019t making no threats, I\u2019m making promises.\u201d<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p dir=\"ltr\" lang=\"en\">#Texans DT Tim Settle with the response:<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI hope he\u2019s mobile enough cause we comin in Arrowhead\u201d \ud83d\udc02\ud83d\udc02\ud83d\udc02\ud83d\udc02\ud83d\udca8 https:\/\/t.co\/ppqOtFoCyl pic.twitter.com\/G4p8WpluBm<\/p>\n<p>\u2014 sidelinesarah (@sidelinesarah) December 18, 2024<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>The Texans have 45 sacks as a team, the second-highest total in the NFL. Settle alone has five of them. They are certainly capable of punishing Mahomes if he cannot move well enough to avoid the rush, and that is a risk the Chiefs are surely considering when determining whether their quarterback should suit up.<\/p>\n<p>Mahomes\u2019 ankle injury does not appear to be too severe, but rest will undoubtedly help. That said, the Chiefs want to lock up the No. 1 seed in the AFC, and beating Houston would go a long way toward furthering that goal.<\/p>\n<\/article>\n<\/div>\n<div id=\"mlb2-3567457\">\n<div>\n<div>\n<div>\n<div>\n<p>Want more great sports stories?\u00a0Subscribe to our free newsletter<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/track.mailerlite.com\/webforms\/o\/3567457\/f7r0e5?v1613616607\" alt=\"Texans DL has blunt warning for injured Patrick Mahomes\" width=\"1\" height=\"1\" \/><\/p>\n<section><\/section>\n<section><\/section>\n<section id=\"featured\">\n<h2>Related Articles<\/h2>\n<div>\n<article>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2>Nolan Arenado reportedly blocked trade to AL contender<\/h2>\n<p>Nolan Arenado is being very picky when it comes to potential trades from the St. Louis Cardinals.
