Kansas City Chiefs’ star quarterback, Patrick Mahomes, has joined the growing list of NFL luminaries who harbor aspirations of representing their country at the 2028 Olympics. During a press conference in Frankfurt, Mahomes, a two-time Super Bowl MVP, expressed his eagerness to lead the U.S. flag football team at the forthcoming Olympic Games in Los Angeles.
Mahomes shared his enthusiasm, saying, “I definitely want to be a part of it. However, I’ve watched some of those guys play flag football, and they’re a bit speedier than I am.” He added, “I’m aware there won’t be offensive linemen to protect me. By that time, I’ll be around 31 or 32 years old. If I’m still agile, I’ll certainly try to get out there and toss the football around, perhaps in L.A.”
