I mean, obviously, I’m upset sad and I’m sitting locker and forever and I start to walk out and he’s there waiting and he could be celebrating. He is going to the Super Bowl and everything like that and all he said to me and it wasn’t a big thing. He said, ‘hey, just keep doing it. How you’re doing? You’re doing it the right way.’”
“As a Young quarterback, you just go out there and play and try to have fun and do whatever you can to appear team in the best position to win. But when the GOAT is saying that he said you’re doing it the right way. It kind of shows that you are doing it the right way. And so that was big for me,” He added.
Mahomes said that they discussed how Tom Brady does things in the offseason, how he trains during the season, and other minor details. TB12 has not yet given him all the secrets, but perhaps he will get them and include them in the game.
