Before Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes was a two-time Super Bowl champion quarterback, he was the son of former MLB reliever Pat Mahomes. That means, as a kid, Mahomes had access to baseball locker rooms and got to meet some of the best baseball players of the time, including Derek Jeter.
Mahomes and Jeter united this week for an interview on Fox that will air Sunday. As part of the reunion, Mahomes brought a picture signed by Jeter of him, as a kid, meeting Jeter before a game. At the time, Jeter was the Yankees shortstop while Mahomes was a kid wearing a Rangers hat as his dad played for Texas in 2001.
