If virtual practice throws can be famous, the most famous moment of Patrick Mahomes’ professional career so far is the ball traveling 68.6 yards in the air and over three Falcons defensive backs and into the hands of Tyreek Hill, who promptly twerked.
“I believe the touchdown wouldn’t have gotten as much hype if I wouldn’t have twerked,” Hill said.
We think Hill was joking, but either way, the play began its viral journey before Hill gyrated himself into the highlight.
The play was everything — Mahomes’ superhuman arm strength, Hill’s cheat-code speed, defenders unable to keep up with the combination.
