Celebrated NFL star Patrick Mahomes is the hot topic right now. Following the disclosure of the $210M restructured deal with the Kansas City Chiefs, Patrick Mahomes will be one of the highest-paid NFL players for the next four years. 

After tagging behind players like Joe Burrow and Justin Herberts in terms of income, the restructured contract has left them in his dust. While talking about the record-breaking deal, the two-time NFL MVP revealed what he would have done if he wasn’t in the NFL. 

Chiefs QB Patrick Mahomes would have liked to work in a sports agency

The 28-year-old Chiefs star player recently broke the internet with his astonishing contract of a guaranteed $210 million for four years with the team. When asked if this makes him study business more or if he relies on his agents, Patrick Mahomes expresses his wish to be a sports agent. 

“I’ve always kind of liked it. I mean, if I didn’t become a NFL player, I wanted to be either a sports agent or work in sports marketing,” Mahomes declared. Patrick Mahomes has always been a passionate sports lover with a unique approach and interest in teamwork and players.

In terms of annual salaries, Mahomes’ revised deal of $52.6 million boosted his place from No.8 to No.2 only after Cincinnati Bengals‘ Joe Herbert at $55 million. Despite the hike in his value, he remains grounded and practical in his reasoning. According to Mabomes, “I always wanted to help players. So I’ve always been interested in it. And I know I’m doing it a different way than other people. But I feel like it’s the right way for me.“

Kansas City Chiefs’ Head Coach Andy Reid has nothing but respect for his star player. “He’s not big on all of that,” Reid said. “He just kind of moves through it like most things and wants to keep getting better. And that is what he’s doing. That’s what makes him unique. You don’t sit there and say, ‘Oh, he’s going to have a letdown.’ You just say, ‘Hey, congrats,’ and keep moving. That’s how he rolls. But I’m happy for him.“

Patrick Mahomes’ $210M restructured deal with the Chiefs

When Patrick Mahomes signed a $450 million contract over ten years with the Kansas City Chiefs in 2020, it was the biggest contract. But its value eventually dwindled with better-paid players emerging, like Joe Burrow. 

Now, the restructured deal with the team will have him earning a guaranteed $210 million to an estimated $218 million from 2023 to 2026. Plans are in place to revisit the deal after the four-year period ends in 2026. 

As a reigning player in the NFL, fans can only expect more breaking news from the young quarterback. Likely, this staggering contract will positively affect the outcome of next Sunday’s game against the Chicago Bears. Will Patrick Mahomes play up to his deal? We can only wait and watch.
