Patrick Mahomes has been on the receiving end of one too many jokes. Despite stunning the world with his brilliance on the field, the Chiefs star is perhaps most recognized by the unique tone of his voice. The NFL world can be a brutal place for someone who doesn’t have thick skin.

Ever since Mahomes stepped into the league, the jokes about his voice have only increased. Here’s what the man in question had to say about the relentless needling with regard to his tone.

Patrick Mahomes takes everything in stride

Patrick Mahomes is unfazed by the shots taken at him. Accepting that his voice was indeed different, the QB said he’s heard it all and is unbothered. Mahomes’ voice has been notoriously compared to ‘The Muppets’ character Kermit. Drawing resemblances between the green frog and the Chiefs QB’s voice, the number of jokes that are thrown in Mahomes’ direction is countless. But the QB takes everything in stride.

He said, “People made fun of my voice for my entire life so I’ve gotten used to it. It’s like the joke that keeps giving. So, I’ve heard it all. I’ve heard the Kermit the frog, I’ve heard the ‘smoking cigarettes’ whatever it is but it’s unique.” Mahomes’ self-awareness is a breath of fresh air.
