Chiefs’ Second Stringer Channels His Inner Patrick Mahomes With Mind-Boggling Play Under Pressure

In an intense game, the Chiefs‘ second-string quarterback, Shane Buechele, showcased his talent akin to Patrick Mahomes. Although the Chiefs fell short of a victory in the nail-biting contest, Buechele led the team admirably, transforming a 14-0 deficit into a hard-fought and respectable loss.

Buechele channeled his inner Patrick Mahomes during the second and third quarters of the game against New Orleans Saints.

One of Buechele’s touchdown throws even mirrored Mahomes’ signature style in the third quarter.
