The nominations are made by the previous alumni of Time 100 and the magazine’s global writing team. The alumni roster includes numerous notable figures, such as NFL legend Peyton Manning, who is well-known among NFL fans. Interestingly, it was Manning who advocated for Mahomes’ inclusion on the list, and it was a deserving decision.
