It’s not accurate to call Mike Kafka the personal coach for Patrick Mahomes. After all, Kafka has worked with all of the Chiefs quarterbacks who have been on the roster in his two seasons with the team.
But Mahomes is the only current quarterback who has been with the Chiefs both years, and with veteran Alex Smith needing little tutoring last season, Kafka was able to shower Mahomes with additional attention. They were often seen after practice working together.
With a few more days of practices and three minicamp workouts later this month before training camp begins in July, Kafka has seen payoff from the extra work.
