omes There is a lot we know about Patrick Mahomes Womens Travis Kelce Jersey , the young quarterback who has captivated the Kansas City Chiefs fan base, as well as the entire NFL, with his rocket for an arm and bright future in the league. However, aside from his star-studded athletic career that spans both football and baseball, there is still a lot to learn about the rising young quarterback. Carrington Harrison and Brad Fanning from 610 Sports Radio held an interview with Mahomes at Arrowhead Stadium on Monday, offering us all a bit more insight into the life of Mahomes.Here are five things we learned: 1. He played a lot of hooky growing up.Mahomes’ father, Pat Mahomes senior, who was a professional pitcher in the MLB from 1992-03, traveled a lot for his career that included stints with the Minnesota Twins, Boston Red Sox, New York Mets, Texas Rangers, Chicago Cubs and Pittsburgh Pirates. Despite his busy travel schedule, though, Mahomes II was still able to maintain a strong relationship with him thanks to...private schooling?“It helped out that I went to private school when I was younger so they let me skip a few weeks at a time,” Mahomes said. “I would miss school for about a week or two get my work in advance and I’d go up and just hang out with him and be with him. He’d still stay on me about doing my school work, but it was good experience to be around him and travel with him. I remember riding buses from stadium to stadium.”2. His dad gave him a (still relevant) childhood nickname.There’s recently been a lot of debate over what the proper nickname for Mahomes should be. NFL Network’s Good Morning Football tossed a few around De'Anthony Thomas Jersey , eventually landing on Peter Schrager’s “Patomic Bomb.” But commentators and fans aren’t the only ones who have been searching for a good nickname for Mahomes.It turns out that Mahomes’ father may already have that taken care of.Growing up, Patrick Mahomes I used gave his son a nickname that could possibly make a comeback and stick: Showtime. Not bad.3. He had an MLB role model.Mahomes, who grew up around baseball and had a successful career of his own, had one player in particular that he emulated in his own game.“Definitely Alex Rodriguez,” Mahomes said. “My dad had just gotten over with the Rangers and I really remember being on the field and just seeing him. He played shortstop, I played shortstop. That was the guy that was really my role model of how to play the game and have a lot of success doing it.”4. His most recent hobby is sports-related.This offseason, Mahomes said his best off-the-field activity was hitting the links.“My favorite hobby especially this offseason was probably golf,” Mahome said. “I really tried to get into golf. My dad played so it’s something else I compete against him in. He is definitely better, but I did beat him when he came to Kansas City one time. That was my only time I’ve ever beat him though.” 5. These are the TV shows he’s currently watching.Game of Thrones, Westworld and, more recently, Power. It’s a great listen, and you can find the full interview here. Tyreek Hill walked off the field holding his wrist Sunday and Kansas City Chiefs fans held their collective breath, only to exhale when their star wide receiver checked back into the game.They held it again when Hill hobbled to the sideline with a foot injury.But in a back-and-forth game with significant playoff ramifications, there was no way Hill was going to stay there.He limped back into the game in time to catch Patrick Mahomes' 40-yard heave on fourth-and-long to keep the Chiefs alive, then caught three more passes in overtime 鈥?all for first downs 鈥?to set the Chiefs up for the eventual winning field goal against Baltimore."He's a fighter," Mahomes said afterward. "He was hobbled http://www.chiefslockerroom.com/authentic-eric-murray-jersey , but you've seen this whole season that it's not just speed now. It's his route-running, and he knows how to get himself open without speed."Oh, the speed is still there. Even after the pain in his foot briefly sent him to the sideline, Hill was still the fastest player on the field the moment he stepped back on it.But in addition to his toughness, he also showed how well-rounded he's become this season.The deep throw from Mahomes was in some ways a wing-and-a-prayer, the kind of ball you throw when you run out of better options. Hill acted like a center fielder as he came back to the ball, tracking it all the way into his hands while a pair of Ravens tried to break it up."He's still fast as all get-out," Mahomes said, "but just being able to get himself open whenever he is a little bit more limited in that situation, it's a special thing."Hill finished the game with eight catches for 139 yards, his fifth 100-yard receiving game this season. He now has 1,258 yards to match Tony Gonzalez for the fourth-best single season in franchise history, and he needs just 134 yards to pass Derrick Alexander for the record.That could come as early as Thursday night, when the Chiefs (11-2) try to clinch the AFC West and a first-round playoff bye against the Los Angeles Chargers at Arrowhead Stadium."This kid never complains about anything and he practices hard every day," Chiefs coach Andy Reid said. "He was banged up a little bit (against Baltimore) and he worked his way through it, came back and made some big plays for us. You love his attitude. He's another one that is unique."His attitude may have been the biggest question surrounding Hill coming out of college.He was kicked off the team at Oklahoma State after pleading guilty to domestic assault of his then-pregnant girlfriend. He wound up finishing his college career at West Alabama, and went through counseling and other requirements that convinced the Chiefs to give him a chance.Hill has rewarded them for it Womens Dustin Colquitt Jersey , becoming not only one of the most electrifying players in the NFL, but doing so with a positive attitude that has endeared him to many skeptical fans."Just making plays for the team," he said with a shrug.Hill also shrugged off any notion that he would have remained out of the game against Baltimore, and he left no doubt that he would be ready for the Chargers. The wrist injury was minor, and the foot was something he was able to play through, and there wasn't a whole lot more to say."I was always taught, no matter the circumstances, these are my brothers," he said, "and they would do the same thing for me."Notes: OL Cam Erving (knee), WR Sammy Watkins (foot) and RB Spencer Ware (hamstring) did not practice Tuesday. ... Defensive coordinator Bob Sutton declined to confirm whether safety Eric Berry would make his season debut Thursday night, but he did sound as if it's possible. "A lot of times a guy that has missed a lot of time, you have to be careful," he said. "They don't usually want to come out." ... Offensive coordinator Eric Bieniemy said it's likely WR Kelvin Benjamin would make his Chiefs debut after signing late last week. "We're bringing him along slowly," Bieniemy said, "but we want him to see the entire package and understand the entire package."
