For Pete's Sake

Chiefs fans are thrilled by news of Patrick Mahomes’ monster contract extension

Chiefs fans knew quarterback Patrick Mahomes would be getting a massive contract extension, but wow.

On Monday, ESPN’s Adam Schefter reported that Mahomes would be getting a 10-year extension worth at least $400 million.

The deal means Mahomes, who has two years remaining on his rookie deal, will be with the Chiefs for the next dozen seasons.

If you’re looking ahead, Mahomes would be looking at free agency after the 2031 season.

It’s little wonder the Chiefs brass decided to pop some champagne on Monday.

Chiefs fans were excited about the news as well. Here is a sample of what fans were saying on Twitter about Mahomes, the Super Bowl MVP:
