History says Patrick Mahomes won't get nearly the amount of playing time that Andy Reid says he will in the team's first preseason game (and that's just fine).

But openers don’t always go as planned. Last season, when the Chiefs played their preseason opener at Jacksonville, Patrick Mahomes played the first series, leading the Chiefs to a field goal. Backup Carson Wentz entered the game for the second series, in the first quarter. Before halftime, then-third team quarterback Chris Oladokun led a drive.

While Mahomes has proven himself with three Super Bowls and two NFL MVPs, the former Texas Tech Red Raiders quarterback seems excited about playing in the preseason opener. Following Reid's decision, Mahomes opened up about Saturday's game.
