In the 21st century, there are only a handful of professional athletes who played in the NFL league and the MLB at the same time. Deion Sanders is the only name that comes to one’s mind when asked about an athlete who dominated both and is still associated with football. But did you know about how Patrick Mahomes almost became a baseball league player? He was drafted by the Detroit Tigers in the 37th round of the 2014 season, but he decided not to pursue that career path.

The star QB of the Chiefs has grown up playing baseball and almost went pro. So, it’s no wonder that he dominated in a recent event when he was pitted against other celebrities in a softball match.

Patrick Mahomes can do it all

Even during the OTA training, Mahomes spends his free time practicing other sports. He has also been known for his golf practice with his buddy Travis Kelce almost on a regular basis. And it’s not like they are messing around. They are about to face two big NBA stars in ‘The Match’ at the end of this month. During all this chaos with his practice and looking after his family, he still manages to attend the softball game, and not so surprisingly, dominate it. Mahomes posted a picture of him swinging a baseball bat on the ground, on Instagram.

Mahomes’ picture was posted with the caption, “Big Slick” the charity fundraiser that organized the event. He was joined by big A-lister Hollywood stars, such as Jason Sudeikis, Paul Rudd, Rob Riggle, and many more. They all played exceptionally well, but Mahomes was the one who dominated the entire event.
