In a revelation that has left NFL fans both amused and slightly concerned, Patrick Mahomes spilled the beans on his most unusual pre-game ritual. The 2-time Super Bowl champion confessed that for every single one of his 100+ NFL games since his rookie season, he has been sporting the SAME pair of lucky underwear. And here’s the kicker – he only occasionally cleans them!

During a guest appearance on Peyton and Eli Manning’s “Manningcast” show, Mahomes confirmed the story, which was initially revealed by his former backup QB, Chad Henne. It turns out that Mahomes has been donning these special red drawers for years, and they’ve become an integral part of his game-day routine.

When questioned about this quirky superstition by Eli Manning, Mahomes explained, “First, my wife Brittany got them for me. So I’m not throwing y’all down, but I have to wear them.” He continued, “At the same time, I threw them on that first season, we had a pretty good season that season. I only wear ’em for game day though so they’re not too worn down.”

It’s hard to argue with success. The Chiefs boasted a 12-4 record in 2018, with Patrick Mahomes earning the league MVP title at just 23 years old. Since then, the Chiefs have clinched 2 Super Bowl victories and a slew of wins, so it seems these lucky undies are here to stay.

But the million-dollar question (or rather, $503 million, to be precise) is: Does Mahomes wash them?

Well, the answer is a bit iffy. Mahomes admitted, “I wash ’em every once in a while at least. If we’re on a hot streak, I can’t wash ’em. I gotta keep it rollin’.”

While we hope he was joking about not washing them during winning streaks, one thing is crystal clear – Mahomes is dead serious about keeping this unique superstition alive. And who can blame him? With his impressive track record, those red undies might just hold the secret to his NFL success!”
