Mahomes and Reid are a match made in football heaven

Despite his influence over the team’s success, the head coach is not the sole cause of the Chiefs’ success. MVP front-runner Patrick Mahomes has played a crucial role in the orchestration of Reid’s vision for the team. Mahomes’ role within the team goes beyond his position as QB.

The former MVP has been a positive inspiration for players both on and off the field. With his nomination for the Walter Payton Man of the Year trophy, Mahomes has set the bar high with regard to having an impact on the community. On the field, the QB is the best at what he does.
