Did you want to see a bunch of deep balls from the Kansas City Chiefs new quarterback at training camp? I bet you do. Clay Wendler is at Chiefs practice in St. Joe today and he has a few good looking Patrick Mahomes deep balls in the videos below. The video is taken from the other side of the field so it’s hard to see a couple of them but focus and you can see Mahomes slinging the rock 40-plus yards down the field. Love it.

I feel like every time I say something good about Mahomes I have to assure you that I like Alex Smith too. And I do. I hope Alex goes out there and wins a ton of games and gives the Chiefs a tough decision in 2018. I really do.
However, I’ll be honest. I thought Mahomes would look more like a rookie than he does so far. He’s made some NFL throws. The reports on the scene say he’s made his share of mistakes too but even short clips of him have him looking the part.
