Patrick Mahomes is at the zenith of his career with another Super Bowl ring in the bag. And while comparisons to the great Tom Brady are inevitable, Mahomes stayed humble. Kansas City Chiefs head coach Andy Reid spilled the beans!

After the Super Bowl win, Mahomes commented on the comparisons with Brady. He said, “To me, it will always be tough because Brady beat me in the Super Bowl.” Brady defeated the Chiefs when he was with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers at the 2021 Super Bowl.
