The Chiefs quarterback was in his first season as the Chiefs’ starter when he led the team to the 2018 AFC Championship. The team nearly beat Brady’s New England Patriots.
Brady came into the locker room after the game and talked to Mahomes. The Chiefs' quarterback was asked about that meeting.
"It kind of just reemphasized that I was doing things the right way, that I was putting in the right work, and that I would have more opportunities to be in these games," he said. "I’ve been lucky enough to be in two more of them since and win both of those so get to go up against the great and a great football team as well and so I’m excited for the opportunity."
