Overview

• Patrick Mahomes says he is “just ready to play football again” and intends to let his on-field performance silence critics rather than focus on revenge.
• He has spoken regularly with Tom Brady this offseason and says the former quarterback’s advice on being authentic and putting in the work has shaped his preparation.
• The Chiefs expect a stronger receiving corps in 2025 with the return of Rashee Rice and Marquise “Hollywood” Brown alongside Xavier Worthy, Noah Gray and Travis Kelce.
• Mahomes believes rekindling a culture of fun will help prevent fatigue and allow the team to play to its potential.
• This performance-first mindset follows their 40-22 defeat to the Eagles in Super Bowl LIX and offseason roster evaluations.
