Fans reacted on video of Patrick Mahomes turning up at Chiefs OTAs
|A video of Patrick Mahomes reporting to the Kansas City Chiefs for summer team activities on Tuesday elicited numerous reactions, but not for the reason you might anticipate.
The video of Mahomes appeared to be pretty innocent—he was simply going through a parking lot toward the building’s door.

Many individuals, however, focused their attention on Mahomes’ belly, believing the quarterback was arriving into the program in poor condition.

Mahomes’ clothes certainly did him no favors.
But for as many individuals who believed Mahomes was out of shape, there were many more who were unconcerned about the quarterback’s health.
People are saying Patrick Mahomes looks out of shape after returning from the offseason.
I wish the quarterback of my team was “out of shape” like Mahomes. 3 rings at 28, you can get a spare tire in the offseason.

Mahomes embracing the dad bod and still annually destroying the league is a hilarious bit https://t.co/OjrJSnJUuS

People posting this to dunk on Mahomes doesn’t even make sense. This just makes him even more powerful. You win those super bowls and then show up to camp like this. It means he’s unstoppable. pic.twitter.com/D3Yv0LlYLs

Maybe Mahomes simply needs a looser shirt.
It’s not unusual for the quarterback’s physique to be the focus of attention. People were talking about Mahomes’ “dad bod” when a video of him with his shirt off in the locker room surfaced in January.
You term it a “dad bod.” I refer to it as the body of a champion.
