Chiefs Win Total Set at 10.5

DraftKings lists the Chiefs' 2026 win total at 10.5, with the Over priced at +115 and the Under at -140. Those Kansas City Chiefs odds follow a 2025 season in which Kansas City finished 6-11. The odds are posted ahead of Kansas City's preseason opener, scheduled for Saturday, Aug. 15, against the Los Angeles Rams at GEHA Field at Arrowhead Stadium.

Mahomes' 2025 season ended in Week 15 when he tore his ACL and LCL during a 16-13 loss to the Los Angeles Chargers on Dec. 14. He underwent surgery the next day in Dallas with Dr. Dan Cooper.

Mahomes Targets Return, Favored for Comeback Player of the Year

Chiefs general manager Brett Veach said on SiriusXM NFL Radio that Mahomes is "way ahead of schedule" in his recovery, according to NFL.com. Veach added that the team's biggest challenge would be "protecting him from himself" during training camp in St. Joseph, Missouri. Head coach Andy Reid has said Mahomes is in a good position heading into the season, though the team has not confirmed an exact return date.

Bettors using Kansas betting apps can also track futures markets tied to Mahomes' recovery, including his odds to win the award. Ahead of Kansas City's first preseason game, DraftKings Sportsbook lists Patrick Mahomes as the +185 favorite to win NFL Comeback Player of the Year.
