Patrick Mahomes, born on September 17, 1995, in Tyler, Texas has rapidly become one of the best active quarterbacks in the NFL today.

Mahomes seized his opportunity in his second season when he became a starter. He recorded 5097 passing yards and 50 touchdowns in the season. Furthermore, he has led the Chiefs to 6 consecutive AFC championship rounds and 3 Superbowl wins since his 1st year as a starter.
Mahomes signed a mammoth contract with the Chiefs worth $450 million for a period of 10 years making him the highest-paid football player for a while.
Some of his records include the fastest to passing yards (10,000, 15,000 and 20,000) in the NFL, leading the Chiefs in passing yards in a playoff game (404), passing yards in a season (5250), completions in one game (43), touchdown passes in a season (50) among others.
His honours include Superbowl champion (3), Superbowl MVP (3), NFL MVP (2), NFL Offensive Player of the Year, First Team All-Pro (2), Pro Bowl (6) and Sports Illustrated Sportsperson of the Year.
