The event took place at the last season’s divisional-round game against the Jaguars. Mahomes took an awkward fall after a tackle and could be seen in excruciating pain, also, whimpering and crying. The severity of his injury prompted the HC, Andy Reid, to call a timeout for the team to regroup, particularly focusing on Mahomes. In the recently surfaced video, we see Mahomes standing on the sidelines, looking at a team tablet, possibly reviewing the game plan.

The video begins when Reid approaches Mahomes, urging him to take a break from the game. He can be heard saying, “I’m going to take you out here.” And instantly, he disagrees with the coach’s decision, starting with a firm, “No! F**k no, I’m good, hell no,” expressing his desire to stay in the game. He adds, “I have one more drive at least, no way, no, I’ll do it at halftime,” trying to bargain his way out of the situation.
Mahomes can then be seen throwing his jersey on the ground in anger, and walking off the field, accepting his fate. In a private booth, his concerned wife can be seen expressing her hesitation about Mahomes returning to play. But it seems the Super Bowl Champion was not willing to give up just yet.
The 2x MVP still played that game
After that intense debate with the head coach, Mahomes angrily made his way out of the sidelines. And moments later, he can be seen wearing a helmet and running to the sideline, screaming, “I gotta go, I’m good, I’m good. Let’s go.” His concerned wife can be heard talking to the Mahomes family in the booth, and asking if he was going onto the field, as he was limping his way to the sidelines.

It is no secret what happened that day, as the Chiefs still managed to win the game, heading to the conference championships against the Bengals.
