Patrick Mahomes recently made a notable appearance on the Manningcast. Engaging in football discussions with hosts Peyton and Eli Manning, the Kansas City Chiefs quarterback shared insights while they watched the simulcast of the Denver Broncos vs. Buffalo Bills ‘Monday Night Football’ game.

He accurately predicted a series of game plays, pinpointing the precise moments and methods through which the Broncos would secure a touchdown.

Mahomes offered valuable perspectives from his seven-year career, with two MVP awards, three Super Bowl appearances, two Super Bowl victories, and two Super Bowl MVP titles.

Eli Manning asked during the second quarter as the Broncos prepared for a second-and-13 from their 44. He mentioned that they have noticed Mahomes’s former teammate, backup quarterback Chad Henne, mentioned ‘you have some superstitions. He said one of them is wearing the same pair of red underwear on game day for years now.’

Mahomes responded saying that he appreciates a good superstition, but ‘couldn’t you opt for something like eating the same pregame meal? Did it have to be the red underwear?’

‘Well, you know, first, my wife Brittany got them for me, so I have to … wear them, you know?’ Mahomes said.

‘But at the same time, I threw ’em on that first season, we had a pretty good season that season. I only wear them for game day, though, so I can’t get — they’re not too worn down. They’re not like these nasty [underwear] — I clean ’em.

Mahomes mentioned that he washes them every once in a while at least. He explained that if they’re on a hot streak, he can’t wash them, emphasizing the need to keep the momentum. He expressed the intention to maintain the superstition as long as the team keeps winning football games.

Since Mahomes took over as the starter in 2018, the Chiefs have consistently secured a minimum of 10 victories each season. That’s numerous weeks during which the laundry of success has evaded a rendezvous with soapy water.

Henne disclosed details about Mahomes during a February episode of ‘The Adam Schefter Podcast.’ He mentioned that Mahomes had been wearing the same pair of underwear on game day since Henne had been part of the team for the final four years of his career before retiring this past offseason.
