Patrick Mahomes says the Kansas City Chiefs are not afraid to call a quarterback sneak, framing it as a viable option even after a goal-line failure against Denver. Multiple outlets report that Mahomes discusses the play in the context of the team’s recent short-yardage outcomes.
Several stories tie the remarks to a question about whether the Chiefs have been using a QB sneak enough, suggesting it has become a point of public debate after recent short-yardage struggles. The Athletic specifically notes the team is “under fire” for what appears to be reluctance to run the play, and it includes what Mahomes and Andy Reid say.
Yahoo Sports and Newsweek both emphasize Mahomes’ stance that the sneak remains available, with Yahoo Sports focusing on the potential of using it this season and flagging the timing of when viewers might see it again. Across outlets, the core facts align: Mahomes addresses the QB sneak, referencing recent goal-line performance and pointing to its continued use as an option.
