Patrick Mahomes: The Football Star Who Could Have Been a Baseball Prodigy

Patrick Mahomes has been a dominant force in the NFL since he was drafted in 2017. However, a story shared by Alex Rodriguez revealed that Mahomes could have pursued a career in baseball instead. Rodriguez advised Mahomes, when he was just 10 years old, to focus on baseball for the money, as he did with Mahomes Sr. during their time with the Texas Rangers. Despite showing potential in baseball, Mahomes chose to pursue football, a decision that has clearly paid off with his numerous achievements in the NFL, including three Super Bowl wins, MVP titles, and various awards and recognitions. While Mahomes and Rodriguez joke about the advice given, it seems unlikely that Mahomes' children will seek career guidance from A-Rod.
