Kansas City Chiefs QB Patrick Mahomes didn’t wait long after Super Bowl LIV to get back on the grind.
He took time off after the conclusion of the season, but he’s since headed out to Texas for some offseason training at APEC’s facilities in Dallas-Fort Worth. Mahomes has been training with Bobby Stroupe and APEC since he was in the fourth grade. He’s been a big advocate for their unique and tailor-made training regimens.
Today, Mahomes was spotted training with former Cowboys WR Dez Bryant. They did everything from conditioning work to some throwing work and route drills. Bobby Belt of CowboysCast and Jon Machota of The Athletic captured the training session.

Bryant and Mahomes both grew up in East Texas, so there’s big mutual respect between the two.

Bryant is training at APEC in an attempt to revitalize his career. He wants to play in the NFL in 2020 after being a free agent for the 2019 season. Catching passes from the Super Bowl MVP will certainly help toward that goal.
It's a work day for @drobalwayzopen and @bobbystroupe's guys today.

It looks like Bryant already has the timing down with Mahomes. Perhaps the Chiefs will be among the teams that bring him in for a workout ahead of the 2020 NFL season. They’re expected to have some departures at the position in free agency and a veteran free agent could be part of the solution.
