Chiefs QB Patrick Mahomes Responds to Raiders’ Mocking Incident at Training Camp
The rivalry between the Kansas City Chiefs and the Las Vegas Raiders took an interesting turn during the Raiders’ training camp practice on Thursday. Raiders safety Trey Taylor was caught on video mocking Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes by holding a “Kermit the Frog” doll wearing a red Mahomes jersey and a wig resembling his hair.
Mahomes, known for his distinctive voice that some say sounds like the Muppets character, had a brief response when asked about the incident after the Chiefs’ practice on Friday. He simply stated, “It’ll get handled when it gets handled.”
This playful jab comes in the midst of a heated rivalry between the two teams. Mahomes has a 10-2 record against the Raiders and has had memorable interactions with Raiders players in the past, including a trash-talking moment with defensive end Maxx Crosby captured on a Netflix documentary.
Despite the incident, Mahomes remains focused on the upcoming season and the first matchup between the Chiefs and Raiders on October 27. His teammates, like defensive end George Karlaftis, are also looking forward to the showdown, making it clear that they are ready to face the Raiders on the field.
As the anticipation builds for the upcoming games between these two rivals, fans can expect an intense and competitive atmosphere when the Chiefs and Raiders meet on the field. Stay tuned for more updates on this developing story.
