Patrick Mahomes has gone up against a lot of talented defenders in his six-year career, many of whom will be future Hall of Famers. But when he was asked to name the three toughest players he’s faced in the NFL, Mahomes listed three guys with ties to the Rams.

His first pick was unsurprising: Aaron Donald. Next on his list was Jalen Ramsey, whom the Rams traded to the Dolphins this offseason in a cap-saving move. Thirdly, Mahomes named Von Miller, a key part of the Rams’ Super Bowl-winning team in 2021.

Incredibly, the Rams had all three on the same defense in 2021 en route to their Super Bowl title.

“In my career, Aaron Donald, one. That’s out the gate. Jalen Ramsey, especially these last few years has always been a dog. And Von Miller. I’m glad he’s not in my division anymore.”

Although Donald and the Rams won’t face Mahomes this season, the Chiefs do have Ramsey and Miller on their schedule. Mahomes will go up against Ramsey and the Dolphins in Week 9 before taking on Miller and the Bills in a pivotal Week 14 matchup at Arrowhead.

All three teams could be in contention for a Super Bowl berth in the AFC this season so it wouldn’t be a surprise to see a rematch between the Bills and Chiefs or the Dolphins and Chiefs in the playoffs.
