Patrick Mahomes, quarterback of the Kansas City Chiefs, could not escape being caught by the NFL due to his speed in running the 40 yards.

As a very bad idea, Mahomes took to social media and asked NFL Network to stop using his 40-yard dash from the 2017NFL Scouting Combine and the exact opposite happened. Patrick only succeeded in drawing even more attention to the moment he sought to hide.

The NFL posted the video on its social media, comparing the 40-yard dash of Patrick Mahomes and Braden Fiske, a college defensive tackle who plays for Florida State Seminoles who weighs 297 pounds.

The league super-positioned the players in the same clip and Braden outperformed Mahomes. The Florida State defensive tackle ran the 40-yard dash in 4.78 seconds on Thursday. While Mahomes did it in 4.8 seconds. He also added 366-pound Texas Longhorns lineman T’Vondre Sweat running the sprint in 5.27 seconds in the video.

Mahomes, a three-time Super Bowl winner all with the Chiefs, surely had a somewhat embarrassing time, but he is preparing for the upcoming NFL season while enjoying family time.
