Patrick Mahomes Focused on Legacy Over Money, Looks to Build Chiefs Dynasty

Mahomes says his priority is winning championships and building a legacy, not maximizing his salary.
Mahomes wants to find the balance between earning a good salary and keeping enough cap space for the Chiefs to remain competitive and retain good players.
Mahomes is currently the seventh-highest paid quarterback in terms of average annual value but is not pushing for a new contract.
The Chiefs may revisit Mahomes' contract before 2025 but are waiting to see extensions for other star QBs like Joe Burrow and Justin Herbert first.
Mahomes sees taking less money, like Tom Brady did, as a way to help build a dynasty and wants keep pushing the market for QBs higher while still surrounding himself with great players.
