Ted Lasso’s Jason Sudeikis Boldly Backs Patrick Mahomes’ $180 Million Powerhouse at Manningcast
The sports world often gets popularized by the entertainment industry. Actors, comedians, dancers, and singers, almost all of them like the NFL athletes. Some like the charm and personality, while some like the philanthropic endeavors. One such revered NFL superstar is Patrick Mahomes. He has fans all around the world. One popular fan came out in his praise.
On the week 9 MNF game between the Chiefs and Buccaneers, Eli Manning and Peyton Manning were watching the game on ESPN’s ManningCast. Jason Sudeikis, who won Emmy Awards and Golden Globe Awards, for the sports comedy series Ted Lasso, joined them. So, everyone was prepared for some hilarious takes from the trio.
A Kansas City native, his hoodie got enough attention to get everyone talking about KC Current, the NWSL team co-owned by Patrick Mahomes and his wife, Brittany. Repping the love for the women’s sports on his chest, Sudeikis earned praise from the fans. Even KC Current shared the clips on their Instagram page.
Payton Manning wished to see him again at the playoffs, not for the NLF but for the NSWL between KC Current and Gotham City FC. It would be an interesting scene for the fans. They know how much the Mahomes family has worked to improve the women’s sports conditions. Not only he has invested in the $180 million team, but he has also been a regular at the soccer games. He even took Travis Kelce to watch a game.
While the KC Current is doing wonderfully in soccer, he has been leading his team to an 8-0 undefeated season. But the week 9 matchup against the Buccaneers left him bruised and battered.
Patrick Mahomes scared of his ankle injury
The Grim Reaper is the boss. The city of Kansas loves him, his teammates respect him, and his rivals fear him. But things never remain the same. It was a prime battle for the top spot.
Patrick Mahomes entered the game with a mild left ankle sprain. But as the game picked up, the football intensity took over him. In the 4th quarter, when everything depended on him, he injured his left ankle. Again! When he felt the pain, he was scared. “Definitely scary. I think it hurt more, just because it’s the same ankle I rolled last week.” were his words. But his toughness is unmatched.
The signal-caller wasn’t concerned much. As soon as the medical team cleared him to play, he was on the ground. Then we saw his competitive nature. One other thing that makes him stand apart is his controlled aggression. The Bucs saw it firsthand. Somehow, they managed to equalize the scores of 24 each at the end of the game. But the Chiefs won it in the overtime.
With superstar Patrick Mahomes leading the team, they look all set for a 3-peat. However, moving forward, they can’t afford injuries to key players. They know enough about it.
