Some things are bigger than football. As the holiday season approaches, Patrick Mahomes displayed his awareness of that fact, taking the time for a generous moment with Kansas City Chiefs fans even after a hardfought win over the New England Patriots.
Mahomes has a tradition of tossing his gloves and sweatbands to fans after games, but on the chilly December Sunday in Foxborough, he spent a little extra time with the traveling Chiefs fans, giving high fives and signing jerseys. Many fans who attend games around the holidays often get the tickets as a present, so Mahomes put an extra bow on top of the special memory for some of those young fans.
This is nothing new for the two-time MVP and two-time Super Bowl champion. Mahomes has earned a place as one of the faces of the National Football League due to his generosity, charity work and incredible family with Brittany Mahomes just as much as it is due to his incredible feats on the gridiron.
Chiefs get back on track against struggling Patriots in front of Taylor Swift
It would have been easy for Mahomes to forget about the fans amid all the noise and media attention that has followed the Chiefs this season. Tight end Travis Kelce’s high profile relationship with Taylor Swift has drawn a media circus to every game, and Sunday’s 27-17 win was no exception.
