Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes is an emerging talent carrying forward his football skills back from college. The gunslinger adds yet another feather to his cap by getting inducted into the Texas Tech Athletics Hall Of Fame. The feat comes after six years into his professional career in the NFL.

On Saturday’s game of Red Raiders with the Baylor Bears at the AT&T stadium, Patrick Mahomes‘ name was unveiled in the Texas Tech Ring of Honor. He became the eighth member of the University to achieve this honor.

The quarterback played for three years with this side, and in the final two years started for the team. Not to mention, the passer left a great mark securing the third spot in terms of passing yards and touchdowns in the school’s history.

Mahomes registered 93 touchdowns for 29 interceptions and completed 859 passes for 11,252 yards. Something which is quite phenomenal in a college career. Especially for an athlete like Mahomes who has been simultaneously sporting other games.

“Patrick Mahomes is a once-in-a-generation type talent at quarterback and a deserving inductee into the Ring of Honor,” head coach Joey McGuire said in an interview back in August.

Indeed, Mahomes’ journey from Texas Tech to getting drafted in 2017 as the 10th overall had been phenomenal, something which his mother is proud of.
