Patrick Mahomes expected questions about his footwork, his mechanics, his inflated stats in the Air Raid offense and his ability to digest a playbook and read defenses. He did not expect this during interviews with teams at the NFL Scouting Combine: Do you consider yourself a cat or a dog?
“I chose dog,” the Texas Tech quarterback said. “I feel like I’ve got a fiery dog mentality on the field.”
Mahomes’ stock has risen since the end of the season, enough so that draft analysts expect him to go in the first round.
