Chiefs’ Patrick Mahomes fools broadcasters

NEWNow you can listen to Fox News articles!

Kansas City Chiefs defensive end Patrick Mahomes completely fooled CBS announcers Jim Nantz and Tony Romo, and possibly the Las Vegas Raiders defense, in the second quarter of Sunday's Week 7 game.

Mahomes and the Chiefs started the second quarter with a 4th-and-1 decision. The Chiefs could try to force the Raiders to jump offsides, run a QB sneak to try to convert a first down, or take a penalty and move the ball back to set up for a punt. It looked like the superstar player was just trying to force the Raiders to commit a penalty.

He sent Travis Kelsey and running back Brashard Smith moved and let out several expletives before intercepting the ball.

“That shit never works, man,” Mahomes said.

When the ball was punted, Nantz and Romo were fooled. The former Dallas Cowboys star was confident that Mahomes would just make the Raiders jump. Instead, he handed the ball to Kareem Hunt and the running back scored the first down.

Mahomes kept his cool throughout the game. He was 26 of 35 for 286 passing yards and three touchdown passes as Kansas City won the game 31-0. He was pulled from the game after the third quarter in place of Gardner Minshew II.
