Kansas City Chiefs star quarterback Patrick Mahomes is well on pace to have an argument as the best quarterback to ever play the game. But for now, he understands that someone else has that title: Tom Brady.
During a recent appearance on The Pat McAfee Show, Patrick Mahomes was asked about the comparisons to Tom Brady and he did not shy away from admitting that he thinks Brady is the best player to ever play the game.
“I like it. He is the greatest of all time, and I like being compared to him, but I still have so long that I have to go in my career if you look at the longevity, the consistent greatness that he had every single year,” Mahomes said Tuesday on the Pat McAfee Show according to Pro Football Talk. “All I can do is just try to continue to be the best me every single day that I have and have no regrets. I actually heard Tom say this a while back and that was his goal was just to be the best version of Tom Brady he could be. All that other stuff kind of happens. All that other stuff kind of comes with it if you continue to work hard and continue to get great teammates around you. I’ve been blessed, man. I’ve been blessed to be in a great organization with great players, and if I can just continue to work the way I work, I’ll have no regrets about however my career ends.”
Mahomes matched Brady as the only quarterbacks ever to win three Super Bowl rings before the age of 29, but he still has a long way to go before matching his seven Super Bowl titles.
