A sure sign of NFL stardom — jersey sales — has Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes climbing the charts.
Mahomes cracked the Dick’s Sporting Goods national sales list in recent weeks, but he appeared in the top 10 for the first time this week at No. 6. He was No. 19 the previous week.
Ahead of Mahomes: Carson Wentz, Saquon Barkley, Baker Mayfield,Tom Brady and Odell Beckham Jr. Seventh is Dak Prescott.
It’s been a fast rise for Mahomes, who ranks 20th in jersey sales over the past 30 days. He’s off to a sizzling start, leading the Chiefs to a 3-0 record and becoming the first player to throw 13 touchdown passes in a team’s first three games.
