Back in 2018 which was his first full season as the Chiefs’ starting QB, Mahomes recorded 50 touchdowns and over 5,000 passing yards. To follow up that MVP season, in 2019 Patrick Mahomes picked up his first Super Bowl ring by guiding the Chiefs past the Niners in Super Bowl LIV.

During Monday’s practice at Missouri Western State University, Mahomes tried something so crazy, that it’s probably never tried in the NFL before — a fake pass from behind the back.

As Mahomes looked to run into the endzone in what looks to be a modified version of a two-minute drill, the quarterback is seen first making a run for it and then pulling off a sneaky fake pass behind the back to bamboozle his opponent. 

And to cap it off, the quarterback even added a little fun by dancing his way into the endzone.

Now, of course, this is only training camp and the guy who fell for it looks to be a Chiefs coach rather than a player. But amidst all the fun and games, no one would’ve expected to pull this one off so easily.

A delight to watch, perhaps Mahomes can give this little trick a bit more practice and pull it off in an NFL game.
