Patrick Mahomes has been known throughout his NFL career for making more statements with his play than his words. But, even with all of his heroics, the Chiefs superstar recently revealed he doesn’t always take the noble approach when on the field.
In a clip from an upcoming interview with CBS News’s Nate Burleson, Mahomes was asked if playing the “hero” at home or the “villain” on the road is a better feeling. Needless to say, the reigning NFL and Super Bowl MVP wasted little time in candidly admitting he aligns more with the dark side.
“I like to be the villain a little bit,” Mahomes said before laughing and dapping up Burleson. “Obviously, it’s cool at Arrowhead [Stadium], be the hero and win the games and be able to host the AFC championship [game]. But, it’s just as fun, no offense to any of my division opponents, to go to their places and win those games.
