Patrick Mahomes and his ailing right ankle are headed for another Super Bowl victory parade. After aggravating the sprained ankle he suffered three weeks ago, the All-Pro quarterback led the Kansas City Chiefs to a thrilling 38-35 come-from-behind victory over the Philadelphia Eagles on Sunday.
Patrick Mahomes and his ailing right ankle are headed for another Super Bowl victory parade.
Mahomes helped the Chiefs end a 50-year title drought when he led the Chiefs past the 49ers in 2020. Three years later, the do-everything quarterback has delivered a third Lombardi Trophy to Kansas City while joining Tom Brady, Joe Montana, Bart Starr, Eli Manning and Terry Bradshaw as the only players to win multiple Super Bowl MVPs.
Mahomes said he didn't get a painkilling shot at halftime, but he no doubt benefited from a longer halftime to allow for Rihanna's performance. And by the time the field was cleared of the stage, No. 15 was at the head of the pack as he led the Chiefs back to the field, facing a 24-14 deficit but knowing they would get the opening kickoff.
“It hasn't even sank in yet. I appreciate it because of the failures,” said Mahomes, whose Chiefs lost to the Buccaneers in the Super Bowl two years ago. “It gives you a greater appreciation to be standing here as a champion.”
