Mecole Hardman playfully trolls Patrick Mahomes over his $500 million contract
Kansas City Chiefs receiver Mecole Hardman took a playful jab at Patrick Mahomes.
The NFL as a whole is still buzzing after news broke on Monday that star Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes had made history, signing a 10-year, $503 million contract with the organization. Those numbers are just hard to even process. Mahomes is making Mike Trout look like he’s poor!
Among those out there taken aback by the monster deal was Mahomes’ Chiefs teammate and wide receiver Mecole Hardman Jr. The young speedster had no choice but to troll his quarterback, taking to Twitter to let the world know his thoughts on the massive extension.
Patrick Mahomes had a great response to Mecole Hardman trolling him on Twitter.
That’s hilarious. Hardman taking a playful jab at his signal-caller like that is pure gold. Hey, Hardman knows now that Mahomes is the richest man in sports history, so it’ll be on him to make him look good.
If the ball is thrown 10 feet over his head, Hardman will have to do everything possible to get up high in the sky to come down with the pigskin. If not, it’ll be all on him, and not Mahomes.
During his rookie campaign in 2019, Hardman, a Georgia product, caught 26 balls for 538 yards and six touchdowns. His 20.7 average per reception was quite impressive. He’s been working overtime this offseason to get ready for his ‘sophomore’ season, and is ready to keep on making more plays for Mahomes and the Kansas City offense.
Before they hit the field, Hardman and Mahomes will undoubtedly keep taking jabs at one another. That’s just the kind of relationship they have.
After winning the Super Bowl in February, Chiefs fans didn’t think this team could bring them even more happiness. With Mahomes locked up for the next 12 years, you better believe countless more amazing memories will be on the way.
