The Kansas City Chiefs are facing a tough decision just days before free agency.

Despite his impact on the offense, one of Patrick Mahomes’ key teammates may not be getting the contract extension many expected.

Andy Reid and the Kansas City Chiefs are facing one of the toughest challenges in recent NFL history. It’s not easy to bounce back from a Super Bowl loss, and in fact, in most cases, teams that fell in the title game don’t even make it back to the playoffs the following year.

Despite that, the Chiefs are clear favorites in the AFC West, where the Denver Broncos and the Los Angeles Chargers are beginning to emerge as threats. However, they still seem far from competing for the divisional title. As for the Raiders, they are starting another rebuilding process under Pete Carroll.

Now, general manager Brett Veach has made a very important decision regarding a key player on the offense for Patrick Mahomes. A big surprise just days before free agency.

Will Isiah Pacheco get contract extension from Chiefs?

No. According to a report from Tony Pauline, the Kansas City Chiefs are taking precautions due to Isiah Pacheco’s injury history. At this moment, they will not be making an offer to extend the star running back’s contract.

“An extension for running back Isiah Pacheco, who is in the final year of his rookie deal, won’t be considered until the season starts and the former seventh-round pick proves he’s back to health and prior form.”

Patrick Mahomes Stuns College Student With Life-Changing Gift After Crazy 94-Foot Putt

Blake Porter’s viral sports moment just got even better, thanks to none other than Patrick Mahomes.

The Texas Tech student became an overnight sensation after sinking a jaw-dropping 94-foot putt during a commercial break at the Texas Tech vs. Houston basketball game on Monday. His instinctive celebration was a chest bump with the three-time Super Bowl MVP himself, who happened to be courtside.

Porter relived the moment on “The Today Show” on Thursday, February 27, where he attempted to recreate the legendary putt.

While he couldn’t quite sink the shot on live TV, the show’s hosts had an even bigger surprise in store, courtesy of Patrick Mahomes himself.

Patrick Mahomes’ Surprise Announcement

Appearing in a pre-taped segment, Mahomes delivered news that left Porter and his family stunned.

“What’s up, Blake?” the Kansas City Chiefs quarterback said. “What an awesome moment it was the other night. I was so excited to be a small part of it. And I know you think you know what you won, but what you don’t know is that Texas Tech Athletics is going to be paying your tuition next fall.”

Porter, visibly shocked, could barely contain his emotions as his mother and girlfriend joined him on set to celebrate.

But Mahomes wasn’t done. He added that he and his sponsor Adidas would be making Porter “an honorary member of Team Mahomes” and would be sending him a “nice care package” to help with his golf game.

“Oh my gosh, oh my gosh. Thanks, guys,” Porter said, still processing the incredible news.

How Porter Ended Up Taking The Shot

Before the big reveal, Porter shared how he ended up on the court in the first place.

Despite arriving late to the game at United Supermarkets Arena, he was randomly chosen to participate in the on-court challenge. When asked if he wanted to take a shot at the seemingly impossible putt, he agreed, though he downplayed his skills, telling “Today Show” co-hosts Savannah Guthrie, Craig Melvin, and Carson Daly that he’s “a double bogey golfer at best.”

That didn’t seem to matter. Porter lined up, took his shot, and watched as the ball rolled all the way into the hole, igniting an eruption of cheers from the crowd.

A Legendary Celebration With Patrick Mahomes

As the arena went wild, Porter’s first thought was simple, to celebrate big.

“I just was like, ‘I really want to celebrate, I like to chest-bump people, there’s Patrick Mahomes,’” he recalled. “I didn’t even think about it. It was just one of those things.”

Even before learning about his tuition surprise, Porter told Lubbock NBC affiliate KCBD-TV that he and the NFL superstar had an instant connection. “We’re bros now,” he joked.

And with Mahomes covering his tuition and officially welcoming him to Team Mahomes, it seems like that bond just got even stronger.
