Chiefs QB Patrick Mahomes to feature in interview segment with MLB legend Derek Jeter

#Chiefs QB Patrick Mahomes to feature in interview segment with #MLB legend Derek Jeter | from: @EdEastonJr

The career of Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes can hardly be compared to many players in sports. The early success and unique charm of being the face of the league while performing at an exceptional level and securing championships can only be claimed by a few stars throughout history.

A player who understands similar early success is Baseball Hall of Famer Derek Jeter, who had more than a fair share of success throughout his legendary career. The New York Yankees great, who currently works for FOX Sports, recently did a special one-on-one interview with Mahomes at Arrowhead Stadium. The entire segment is set to air as part of FOX NFL Sunday’s pregame coverage ahead of the Chiefs hosting the winless Chicago Bears.

The two superstars have crossed paths in the past as Jeter wrote a feature in honor of Mahomes for Time’s annual list of the 100 most influential people of 2020. Jeter also faced off against Mahomes’ father during his career on multiple occasions.

FOX Sports NFL ranks Chiefs QB Patrick Mahomes as league’s top signal caller

FOX Sports NFL recently ranked #Chiefs signal-caller Patrick Mahomes as the league’s top quarterback ahead of the 2023 season.

Preseason accolades have already started piling up for Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes, who was ranked as Fox Sports NFL’s top signal called in the league ahead of the 2023 season on Wednesday.

This should come as no surprise to fans given that Mahomes is the league’s reigning MVP and has a shiny new Super Bowl ring to show for his efforts in 2022. It seems that the soon-to-be 28-year-old quarterback is leaps and bounds ahead of any competition he might have for the superlative title of “NFL’s best” given his production and ability to win games on the biggest stage.

For his part, though, Mahomes seems to be entering the 2023 season with the same underdog mentality that motivated him to find success in years past. He and the Chiefs will have a massive target on their backs as they endeavor to defend their Super Bowl LVII championship, and it will take another stellar campaign for Mahomes to end the season atop FOX’s Sports NFL’s best quarterback list in February 2024 after the playoffs.
