Fans of Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes have an opportunity to acquire a unique piece of memorabilia, but it’s going to be costly.

Mahomes’ “My Cause, My Cleats” footwear is being sold by NFL Auction, with proceeds going to the “15 and the Mahomies” foundation. That’s Mahomes’ charity.

The current bid is $6,300 and the auction is due to close on Feb. 8, the day after Super Bowl LV. You can bid here.
