Patrick Mahomes explains the encounter with Brady. Chiefs QB said, “He just grabbed me after the game. I was kind of leaving the stadium and they had obviously been celebrating going to the Super Bowl. He just talked about how he respected how I did everything the right way and stuff like that. It’s just cool to have a guy of that stature who’s won championships.” Mahomes adds, “It seems like year in and year out that has respect for your game as much as you have respect for his. It was definitely a cool experience that I was able to know that I was doing things the right way early in my career.” 

Patrick Mahomes calls Brady a “global star”

It is no surprise that fans consider the 22 seasons player an elite star. Even Patrick Mahomes, who had rivaled Tom Brady, thinks the GOAT has no competition. “He’s someone that’s a global star,” Mahomes said about Brady.

The Grim Reaper picks up many inspirational qualities from the Tampa Bay quarterback. Along with appreciating his achievements on the field, he also admires that the experienced player manages to spend time with his family.

Although Mahomes is young and has still considerable time to reach the proficiency level of Brady, he is making some serious moves in the game. The young Chiefs QB won his first Super Bowl at 24; the same age Tampa Tom drove New England to the Lombardi Trophy. Therefore, the future is certainly bright for the young QB.
