Professional flag football player Darrell Doucette issued a challenge to Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes, asserting he could beat the reigning Super Bowl MVP for a spot on the U.S. Olympic team when the sport is added for the 2028 games.
Doucette gave credit to Mahomes for being the best quarterback in the NFL but claimed that he could beat out Mahomes to be the Olympic team’s quarterback.
Mahomes responded to Doucette’s comments on Twitter with understandable confusion over the callout.
Using a famous reaction by five-time Grammy winner 50 Cent, Mahomes quickly moved on from the discourse about Doucette’s bold claim.

Judging from this interaction, Mahomes seems more than happy to let Doucette keep the title of champion flag footballer, and far more interested in Kansas City’s matchup against the Baltimore Ravens game on September 5.
Stay tuned to see if Mahomes can prove Doucette wrong with a win in Week 1 of the regular season.
