Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes may be a National Football League (NFL) superstar but contrary to popular belief, and unlike many of his NFL colleagues, he isn't shredded from head to toe.
After the Kansas City Chiefs won the American Football Conference (AFC) for the second straight year, and fourth time in five seasons, Mahomes gave a fiery speech in his locker room, where he was not concerned about his appearance.
However, screenshots circulated showing him with a dad-bod rather than a six-pack abs, but he took it all in stride.
"Yoooo why they have to do me like that!?!?!? #DadBozSZN," Mahomes posted on X, formerly Twitter, with laughing emojis.
"Like i got kids!!!!", he wrote in a follow-up post.
The reactions to his post were equally as hilarious a user replied with side-by-side photos of the dad-bodied Mahomes next to the ultra-jacked Seattle Seahawks' wide receiver DK Metcalf.
"Only one of these guys is in the Super Bowl," the post read.
ESPN analyst Matt Miller wrote that Mahomes and Jason Kelce, who became a meme thanks to his shirtless celebration at the Chiefs' game against the Buffalo Bills, are "doing more for dad bods than anyone in history" and "Doing the lord’s work."
