PATRICK Mahomes had a message for a legendary NFL star after accepting yet another NFL award.
The Kansas City Chiefs star quarterback, 28, received an award after his third Super Bowl-winning campaign of his career.
Mahomes appeared at the 54th Annual NFL Awards ceremony, also known as the 101 Awards, at the Loews Kansas City Convention Center Hotel.
The three-time Super Bowl MVP was given the Derrick Thomas Award, which is for Team MVP.
Mahomes took part in a news conference at the special occasion.
And he delivered a hilarious quote about the family of Pittsburgh Steelers star pass rusher T.J. Watt, who was seated on the opposite side of the Chiefs icon.
“I try to stay as far away from that family as possible,” Mahomes joked during his acceptance speech.
To be nominated by your teammates, that’s the true reward. I never take it for granted to be able to stand on a stage like this or be in the locker room that I’m in.
Mahomes was referring to the powerful T.J. and his also huge brothers, J.J. Watt and Derek Watt.
J.J. had 114.5 sacks during his legendary career before retiring in 2022.
His younger brother T.J. is on 96.5 sacks and still at the peak of his powers aged 29.
