## Resource

Patrick Mahomes is set to return for Week 1 of the 2026 NFL season, bringing renewed fire to the Kansas City Chiefs after a brutal 2025 campaign cut short by injury. With a massive $34.6M cap hit, Mahomes leads a quarterback room that includes Justin Fields ($3M) as the backup and rookie Garrett Nussmeier ($915K) and veteran Chris Oladokun ($1.5K) vying for depth roles — all while the Chiefs aim for another Super Bowl run.
