Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes has set a number of records throughout his time in the NFL, and he made even more history in the defending Super Bowl champions’ Week 13 matchup against the Las Vegas Raiders on Black Friday.
After struggling to score for most of the first half against Las Vegas, Mahomes was able to put a touchdown drive together as the two-minute warning approached in the first half.
The reigning Super Bowl MVP found veteran wide receiver Justin Watson in the endzone, which lifted him over Chiefs legend Len Dawson on Kansas City’s all-time touchdown passes leaderboard.
Take a look at the record-setting touchdown, which was posted to Twitter by the Chiefs’ official account:

Dawson was considered to be the best quarterback in franchise history before Mahomes meteoric rise to stardom.
Stay tuned to see if Mahomes can continue keeping Kansas City’s offense in gear to help the Chiefs earn their eleventh regular season win.
