Patrick Mahomes has returned to Chiefs headquarters for OTAs and is once again being mocked by fans for his self-proclaimed “dad bod.”
Mahomes, who won his third Super Bowl with the Chiefs in February, insisted to TIME last month that his ‘dad bod’ was ‘great’ for an NFL quarterback.
However, the 28-year-old was the butt of some jokes from Chiefs fans on Tuesday when he arrived at the team facility.
“Brother doesn’t even need to be fit for a hat trick,” wrote one under a mahomes video in X posted by the Chiefs.
“He looks a little tired and out of shape,” another added. ‘But still better than all the QBs, come on!’

“I definitely have a little bit of a dad bod,” Mahomes told TIME at first before defending his body shape.
‘I will also say that I have a great body for a quarterback. You have to have some padding there to withstand the hits we take.
Mahomes has enjoyed a well-deserved offseason break up to this point, as he spent time in Mexico following his Super Bowl victory and also partied in Las Vegas with teammate and friend Travis Kelce.
The quarterback also attended the Miami Grand Prix earlier this month with his wife, Brittany, where Kelce also attended.
The Chiefs will hold offseason workouts May 20-22, June 28-30 and June 4-7.
