Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes has attempted to motivate his teammates toward a Super Bowl victory in Las Vegas by promising his team another trip to Las Vegas to celebrate.
The Chiefs are ready to play a rematch of the 2020 Super Bowl when they recorded a 31-20 victory over the San Francisco 49ers.
Kansas City will also have a chance to win back-to-back Super Bowls after defeating the Philadelphia Eagles in last season’s big game.
This year’s big game will take place amid the bright lights of Sin City, but Mahomes insisted the Chiefs’ trip to Las Vegas is all business.
‘This is a business trip. I told the guys if we win, I’ll bring everyone back to Las Vegas to celebrate,” Mahomes told NFL Network’s James Palmer.

In addition to using a second trip back to Sin City to try to motivate his teammates, Mahomes indicated that he is “doing whatever it takes” to lift the Lombardi Trophy for the second year in a row.
“It’s humbling, because I never thought I’d be in so many Super Bowl games,” Mahomes said, adding that “it’s really remarkable” that he’s had four opportunities so far to play in the NFL’s biggest game of the year. .
“I don’t take it for granted, because you never know if you’ll be able to get back into this game.”
If Mahomes can secure victory this weekend, it would give him his third Super Bowl trophy and place him in a rare group of players in NFL history.
The fact that Mahomes had achieved that milestone in just his seventh year in the NFL would also be arguably the best start to a career by any player in history.
