Patrick Mahomes quite literally broke the bank — or at least the brain of half of the country — by signing a deal Monday that, with incentives and escalators, is worth half-a-billy (with a B!)
It’s not necessarily surprising that he signed such a lucrative deal or that the Chiefs locked him down until he’ll be old and gray. (And by old and gray I mean early 30s.) He’s an MVP winner, the league’s most well-known player, and a Super Bowl winner to boot.
But as I was doing research on Mahomes, I remembered Mahomes’ recruitment and an all-time sliding doors moment: what if he’d committed and signed with Oklahoma State?
