Patrick Mahomes is renowned for his impressive talent and gameplay on the field. However, during a recent encounter, his fellow competitor revealed a side of him that is often hidden. In the previous season, amidst an intense clash between the Kansas City Chiefs and the Las Vegas Raiders, fans were treated to an unforgettable showdown.

Maxx Crosby and Mahomes are widely regarded as one of the best duos in football. Besides their on-field battles, they occasionally engage in playful interactions with each other, which is worth noting. However, during this particular instance, Crosby escalated the competition to a serious level and ultimately ended up headbutting his opponent, Patrick, during last season’s match.

He continued, ?I turned and it was Pat and he was still running and I’m like I’m not going for that so I ran straight to him and I headbutted them.?

Crosby also revealed that Patrick Mahomes is one of the most competitive players he has ever played with.

Besides Crosby, Washington Commanders? offensive coordinator Eric Bieniemy also once talked about Patrick?s competitive nature.
