ATLANTA — Patrick Mahomes' breathtaking breakthrough season earned him the NFL's Most Valuable Player award.
The Chiefs quarterback landed a pair of honors at NFL Honors on Saturday night, taking The Associated Press 2018 MVP and Offensive Player of the Year awards. In his second pro season, Mahomes led Kansas City to its first AFC title game since 1993 with some of the most creative and clutch plays the league has seen in years.
"I'm so humbled," he said. "This is just the beginning. We've got a long ways to go."
Mahomes received 41 votes from a nationwide panel of media members who regularly cover the league.
