Patrick Mahomes is apparently a savage both on the field AND off of it ... 'cause he just responded to some Ja'Marr Chase shade this week with a legendary clapback!!
If you aren't familiar ... Chase -- the Bengals' superstar wideout -- dogged Mahomes a bit on Tuesday when he was having a conversation with a reporter about who's the best player in the NFL.
The receiver said it was his quarterback, Joe Burrow -- but then when he was informed the Cincinnati QB believed it was actually Mahomes .
