For Pete's Sake

Watch Chiefs’ Patrick Mahomes work on a new behind-the-back pass at training

Maybe someone needs to come up with a Patrick Mahomes passes bingo card.

We’ve seen the Chiefs quarterback complete bombs, screen passes, left-handed throws and no-look passes.

At training camp last year, Mahomes completed a behind-the-back pass off a bootleg. That never was tried in a game.

But Mahomes is working* on a no-look pass again while training ahead of the 2020 NFL season. Photographer Preston Smith shared a video of Mahomes in an Instagram story.

*Maybe it’s better to say he’s refining the throw

Bleacher Report shared that video:

See how that differs from the one Mahomes tried last year in camp:

If you couldn’t read the text on this year’s video, it says: “Patrick Mahomes says he’ll hit this pass this year.....”

Boy, that would be fun to see in a game.
