I just don't see any possible route where they risk him back at LT, or where they give him the opportunity to earn that spot, given the possibility he isn't just "that's a bad few snaps" but he's actively getting Mahomes killed.
It sucks if it really is more of a mental issue, but I'd bet money they try to solve the problem with a position shift and hope that both is a better skillset fit and it un-fu**s his head.
Hope I'm wrong and he's somehow the long-term LT, but I can't see them risking it.

The potential outcomes here are many, just saying that they drafted him as a LT so I wouldn't be so sure they're totally giving up on that idea just yet
