**Ex-NFLer Says Chiefs QB Patrick Mahomes’ Wins Responsible for Ending His Career**
A former NFL defensive back has caused a stir by claiming that Patrick Mahomes, the Kansas City Chiefs’ superstar quarterback, is directly responsible for the premature end of his playing career. The retired player, who chose to remain anonymous during his initial statement, made the bold claim during a recent sports podcast interview.
“Mahomes didn’t just beat us; he embarrassed us,” the ex-NFLer said. “Every time we faced him, it felt like my name would trend on social media—for the wrong reasons.”
According to the player, a pivotal matchup against the Chiefs in 2019 marked the beginning of the end. He recounted how Mahomes picked apart his team’s secondary, turning what was supposed to be a defensive clinic into a personal highlight reel. “It wasn’t just losing; it was the no-look passes, the sidearms, the way he made us look like amateurs,” the former player lamented.
He claims the aftermath of that game was brutal. “Coaches started questioning me. The media had a field day, and my confidence never recovered. By the time the next season rolled around, I was benched more often than not. Mahomes ended me.”
Fans have reacted with mixed emotions to the player’s comments. While some empathize, others argue that Mahomes is merely doing his job. “You can’t blame greatness for exposing mediocrity,” one fan tweeted.
When asked about the remarks, Mahomes responded with his trademark humility. “I’ve got nothing but respect for everyone who plays this game. Football is tough. We’ve all had our ups and downs.”
While it’s unlikely the ex-player’s career solely hinged on one game, it does highlight the seismic impact Mahomes has had on opponents—and the league as a whole. For some, his dominance isn’t just a hurdle; it’s a career-defining challenge.
