Just a yard away from the end zone at the StubHub Center, Patrick Mahomes faked a handoff to Kareem Hunt early in the fourth quarter of Sunday’s 38-28 win.
Instead of letting the running back punch it in, Mahomes kept the ball and sprinted right toward the goal line.
As the Chargers defense converged on him, the quarterback started to slide feet-first. But Mahomes seemed to change his mind mid-slide, and instead, he tucked and somersaulted the rest of the way down, landing just shy of the end zone with Chargers cornerback Casey Hayward on top of him.
