Patrick Mahomes reached a goal that few American athletes have accomplished — owning a piece of a professional sports team.
On Sunday, the Kansas City Chiefs quarterback elaborated publicly for the first time about his purchase of a piece of Major League Baseball’s Kansas City Royals, which was announced in late July. Specifically, Mahomes was asked whether he or teammate Travis Kelce — who is part of a group of investors looking to purchase the New York Mets — first eyed the business opportunity.
“I don’t know who had the idea first,” Mahomes said with a laugh.
