KC Chiefs: WATCH Patrick Mahomes throw a behind the back bullet
By Joel Wagler
KC Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes continues to find new ways to amaze, even in offseason workouts.
The Kansas City Chiefs have locked down their franchise quarterback for the next twelve seasons, but that doesn’t mean Patrick Mahomes is resting on his laurels.
He continues to work out with a phenomenal drive, always looking for a way to be better and more durable. Inking a contract in the half a billion-dollar range doesn’t seem to have knocked the young quarterback off his course at all.
This is all very exciting news for Chiefs fans. Few things were scarier for the franchise than watching Mahomes hobble off the field at Denver with a knee injury. Luckily, he recovered relatively quickly, and the rest is now NFL history.
Would Patrick Mahomes throw a behind the back pass in a game for the KC Chiefs?
SportsCenter tweeted out a clip from the Preston Smith Photography Instagram account on Saturday, where Mahomes effortlessly fires a bullet downfield behind his back.
We’ve seen the no-look passes. We’ve been bowled over by a left-handed completion. We’ve seen him accurately heave the ball from crazy angles, sometimes on the dead run. Is it any surprise Patrick Mahomes might pull out a spectacular behind the pass in a game situation?
If he did something like that in an actual game, he had better be sure it doesn’t get picked. That probably wouldn’t go over well. Still, if he completed that pass, Chiefs fans might just explode in uncontrollable joy in having a quarterback like this one.
There is no denying how special Mahomes is. He is, after all, the youngest player ever to win an MVP and a Super Bowl MVP. It was enough for him to set the mark for a sports contract. Still, it would behoove everyone to remember the dude IS human (maybe?), and not every unconventional throw he attempts will end with a great result.
If he continues to throw bizarre passes, some are most certainly going to backfire on him at some point.
Let’s not worry about that right now. Let’s just enjoy this incredible person and athlete destiny has dropped into our laps. Chiefs fans deserve it.
