Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes made his weekly appearance on “The Drive” via 610 Sports Radio and told host Carrington Harrison he “could still throw in the low-to-mid 90s.”

Mahomes, 28, grew up in and around MLB locker rooms because his father, Pat Mahomes Sr., was a professional pitcher. Patrick II also played the position in high school and in 2014, the Detroit Tigers drafted him, though he opted to instead continue playing football at Texas Tech University.

Patrick and Brittany Mahomes’ kitchen nightmare as kids run wild

The two-time Super Bowl champion is seemingly now thinking of pulling a Deion Sanders move by playing two professional sports at the same time. Mahomes at least wants to prove he can pitch over 90 miles per hour in Spring Training.

“I don’t know how many strikes I would throw. But I think if I just let it go, let it rip, I could still get it up to the mid-90s. I’ll have to go out to Spring Training at some point and try to prove it.”

Patrick Mahomes could go the Michael Jordan route

Mahomes has always remained “a baseball player at heart” and it’s possible he eventually joins the MLB to honor his father like Michael Jordan did.

Jordan left the NBA after three championships and picked up the sport of baseball like his father always wanted.

Mahomes, however, has a lot more skill when it comes to playing ball, so joining the Kansas City Royalswhen he grows tired of winning Super Bowl rings could eventually be on the horizon.
