KANSAS CITY, Mo. -- Less than a month before the Kansas City Chiefs hold their first voluntary offseason practice, coach Andy Reid said Saturday quarterback Patrick Mahomes is on track to participate alongside his teammates, even if it's in a limited capacity.

Mahomes is continuing to progress well in his rehab after he had surgery in December to repair a torn ACL and LCL in his left knee, according to Reid. The Chiefs are scheduled to have their first three OTAs on May 26-28.

"He is in a good position to be able to do some things," Reid said of Mahomes. "If he can do some things, [he'll do it]. Phase two [of the offseason program], remember, there's no contact and there's no offense versus defense. It's phase three that you get into that. ... He's in a position where he can do everything, I think."
