The Kansas City Chiefs defeated the Arizona Cardinals 38-10 on Saturday to avenge their loss in the first week of the preseason. Patrick Mahomes was given a run-out in the stadium where he won the Super Bowl in February.

The quarterback completed 10 of 15 throws for 105 yards and one touchdown, but one of his five interceptions was the one that gained widespread attention.

Mahomes, who was being followed by numerous Cardinals players as he ran towards the sidelines, sprang into the air and completed a pass before his boots touched the out-of-bounds line.

It was incomplete, as Marquez Valdes-Scantling couldn’t quite come down with it, but the athleticism of Mahomes was incredible.

“I don’t know if he knew I was still going to throw it,” Mahomes said afterwards when asked about that play.

“It’s good work being able to scramble around, work that scramble drill.

“He told me after the fact that I should have just ran out of bounds!

“As long as I’m not getting hit, I should try some stuff out.”

Patrick Mahomes wants momentum

Speaking after the game, Mahomes explained how important it is for the Chiefs to build up some momentum before they kick off the new NFL season against the Detroit Lions on Thursday, September 7.

“You want to have that momentum going into the regular season,” the quarterback told the media afterwards.

“We’re trying to get better and trying to work on stuff.”
