Another COVID-19 positive has popped up since the Kansas City Chiefs’ win over New England in Week 4.
And unfortunately for Patrick Mahomes, he happened to come into close contact with the latest Patriots player to be infected by the virus.
After the Chiefs 26-10 win on Monday Night Football, Mahomes and New England cornerback Stephon Gilmore shook hands on the field and exchanged a few words. Gilmore since has tested positive.
“I was just trying to show respect to a great football player who I hope is getting better very quickly,” Mahomes on Wednesday said of Gilmore, via ESPN.
