The Chiefs will play the Jacksonville Jaguars at TIAA Bank Stadium tomorrow.
Fans should expect to see Mahomes and Travis Kelce in the first quarter.
“As far as playing time for this game, we’re going to go with a quarter,” Reid said.

Mahomes is eager to get some playing time in the first preseason game.
Patrick Mahomes Endorsements
Patrick Mahomes earns more than $50 million per season from his contract with the Kansas City Chiefs.
But the superstar quarterback also profits from his brand off the field.
Mahomes has a reported net worth of $70 million.
And that’s largely due to some of the brands he endorses.
The Chiefs star is the face of Adidas in the United States and appears in State Farm commercials.
He also appears in advertisements for Subway and Head and Shoulders.
Mahomes also became the face of the Prime energy drink, owned by Logan Paul and KSI.
“It’s cool, I like playing in the preseason, honestly,” Mahomes said.
“Making sure we’re doing things the right way and keeping everyone healthy and playing the sport I love.
“Hopefully we can go out there and play a good game of football.
“I always want to get hit, but not a hard hit. A little push, that’s all I need.”
Reid is confident the offense will pick up right where it left off after winning its second straight Super Bowl.
“Listen, I allow him (Mahomes) to get into the swing of things. Those who know how to do it, both sides of the ball,” Reid said.
“Somewhere you have to get out there and shoot and this gives him the opportunity to do that.”
