Mahomes reveals Brady gave him advice this offseason
Patrick Mahomes, star quarterback of the Kansas City Chiefs, revealed that he had several conversations with NFL legend Tom Brady over the summer. Speaking on the "Up & Adams" show, Mahomes said:
“I’ve talked to Tom a good amount this offseason. It’s been cool that he’s willing to give advice — he doesn’t have to do that. I’ve always had a ton of respect for him, and I’ll take any advice he gives.”
According to Mahomes, one of Brady’s biggest messages was about the importance of being authentic:
“People can tell when you’re not being real or when you’re not putting in the effort. That’s something he did every single day — and it’s why people respected him so much.”
Mahomes also mentioned how Brady’s recent comments — suggesting Mahomes is capable of eventually surpassing Brady’s achievements — served as motivation:
“For him to say that, it drives me even more. I’ve got a long way to go, but it’s encouraging.”
Now entering his ninth NFL season since being selected 10th overall in 2017, Mahomes has already played in five Super Bowls, won three rings, and set multiple records as a passer. He holds a 17–4 playoff record, with two of those losses coming against teams led by Brady — including the Super Bowl LV loss to Brady’s Buccaneers.
Mahomes was also asked about his mindset heading into 2025, following a tough defeat to the Detroit Lions in last season’s AFC title game. He made it clear that this isn’t about revenge:
“When you lose, you obviously want to get back at it... but I think for me, it’s about being quiet and letting people talk, while I go play football and handle it the right way.”
The Chiefs will open their 2025 season in Brazil on September 5 against the Los Angeles Chargers.
