Patrick Mahomes, Patrick Levon Mahomes II, is an National Football League (NFL) quarterback for the Kansas City Chiefs. Playing under head coach Andy Reid for all of his pro career has allowed Patrick to develop an ability to understand and improvise in the middle of game-deciding plays. [1]
His throwing style -- consisting often of no-look passes thrown from a sideways arm angle -- is the result of (an era of sport diversity) playing three sports while in high school: his no-look passing from being a point guard in basketball, and his sideways angle from being a shortstop in baseball.[2][3]
Patrick has been a very vocal believer in Jesus Christ, referencing Jesus in many interviews and tweets (though he was cohabiting with his then girlfriend, Brittney Mathews, whom he dated since high school). He has a level head and is well known for his ability to judge the entire field. [4] His fans are some of the most dedicated of any team in the NFL. [5] [6]
He is a oddity among NFL Quarterbacks being one of the only whom has been pro-police in the past. [7] [8]
As of February 20th, 2021; Brittney Mahomes (then Mathews) gave birth to the couple's first child, a baby girl named Sterling Skye Mahomes. [9] The couple and their daughter have captured the attention and love from the paparazzo community. [10] [11]

2019 Season
In the 2019 season, Patrick Mahomes and his Kansas City Chiefs Crew won Super Bowl LIV. Which is celebrated as the biggest "Return to the Crown" moment in sports team history, as the team had experienced fifty seasons exactly without winning the title.
2020 Season
Because of the commotion around Covid-19 being so dense, many speculated that Football was gone for the foreseeable future. Mahomes and crew reached the Super Bowl for a second season. Although being that the entire Offensive line was in shambles, leaving the second and third string to be the brunt, there turned out to more pressure on Patrick than any other NFL Quarterback in history. [12] In 56 drop-backs (where the quarterback 'drops-back' to create room for the offensive line), he was pressured more than 52% of each (29 pressured drop-backs). [13] The Tampa Bay Buccaneers also had a rather interesting discussion surrounding their being in the Super Bowl. They became the first Super Bowl era team to host the championship, in its history. [14] With no other answer for the 2020-2021 Super Bowl being as catastrophic as it could have ever been head coach, Andy Reid, has vowed to give Mahomes extra protection from opposing defenses. It is implied in the article.[15]
