The Kansas City Chiefs coach has just about seen it all out of his star quarterback, and he's OK with that.
in Sunday's 24-23 preseason loss to the Detroit Lions, a throw that his coach Andy Reid is fine with, on one condition of course.
"I heard he blamed Kelce , but that's alright. He does it in practice every day and I'm alright as long as it's a completion,"For a coach that's seen it all out of Mahomes, Reid has clearly given his three-time Super Bowl winning quarterback the freedom to go make a play. With that said, even Sunday's highlight play from his quarterback surprised Reid, especially since it occurred in-game.
Mahomes has converted plenty of the trick passes in-game before, and Sunday was the latest opportunity for him to improvise. We'll surely see more of the theatrical plays in the regular season that kicks off next month, as the Chiefs prepare their pursuit of a third-straight Super Bowl title.Mike McDaniel is a staff writer on the Breaking and Trending News team at Sports Illustrated, where he has worked since January 2022.
