Patrick Mahomes, the quarterback for the Kansas City Chiefs, had a specific ask for the NFL prior to this year’s scouting combine.
Despite being a prominent figure in promoting the league’s product,
given his three Super Bowl victories and two NFL MVP awards,
Mahomes doesn’t appreciate all the attention the league gives him.

The future star of the Kansas City Chiefs had a slow 40-yard dash

Mahomes posted a 4.80 for his 40-yard dash in the 2017 NFL Scouting Combine.
That’s a number Mahomes doesn’t seem too proud of.
The 40-yard dash didn’t mean much to Mahomes’ career

Many top prospects opt out of the combine for a reason. They believe that some of the measurements conducted there pale in comparison to what can be observed from actual game footage.
Given Mahomes’ illustrious career as a three-time Super Bowl champion, it’s evident that his abilities far exceed the significance of a 40-yard dash time. Keeping the video of his sprint as an overlay won’t sway coaches like Matt LaFleur into believing that attending the event is necessary.
