Jon Gruden sees similarities between Brett Favre & Patrick Mahomes

The Kansas City Chiefs’ brass aren’t the only ones who love Patrick Mahomes’ potential. As general manager John Dorsey and head coach Andy Reid were high-fiving each other in the draft room when they selected Mahomes at No. 10, other teams were frustrated knowing their top quarterback was off the board. Former head coach and now NFL broadcaster Jon Gruden says he understands why the Chiefs made the move they did, since he sees a young Brett Favre in Mahomes.

Gruden spoke with Terez Paylor of the Kansas City Star about Mahomes’ potential and said he’d have made the same decision that Dorsey made.
