For what has to be the first time this year, Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes wasn't No. 1.
Baltimore Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson, the reigning NFL MVP, captured the top spot in The NFL Network's Top 100 players of 2020, while Mahomes was No. 4.
Mahomes, the Super Bowl MVP, was also surprisingly ranked behind Seattle Seahawks quarterback Russell Wilson and Los Angeles Rams defensive tackle Aaron Donald in voting, which was conducted by player surveys last season.
Soon after the results were announced Wednesday night, Mahomes, who recently signed the richest valued contract in American professional sports, tweeted an emoji that shows a pencil writing on paper, which could be his way of saying he's taking note.
