This is a redshirt year for Mahomes, plain and simple. He'll either have a chance to compete for the #1 spot next year or Smith will be cut outright and the spot given to Mahomes.
But they're not going to evenly split reps, especially during the season, between Mahomes and Smith.
FWIW, Tyler Bray has NEVER taken a regular season practice snap.
Never.

I am perfectly fine with PMII sitting a year. I have disappointing expectations for this season under Alex Smith and when he goes down for injury crash and burn with Tyler Bray. This year is a throw away season we really count on Justin Houston to stay healthy anyways if we have a chance at a run at going to the playoffs.
I'm cool with what ever. However I don't buy for a second that a player like Tyreek Hill wouldn't want to have time with PMII throwing to him going balls deep even if it's after practice and they do it on their own accord. I never said PMII would take practice reps from Alex Smith. I do think he is more than capable of taking over the #2 spot from Tyler Bray but I even agree with you if they are just wanting him to sit just to sit and learn he is a child learning how to ride a bike with training wheels I get it.
We are seriously ****ed if Alex Smith goes down and Tyler Bray has to step in. So they may take a flyer on another vet QB if AS goes down but odds are he won't make it 16 continuous games.
Are we really going count on Tyler Bray if/when Alex Smith goes down with injury?
