KANSAS CITY, Mo. (KCTV) – When the Kansas City Chiefs take the practice fields at training camp this summer, there will be a noticeably different look. And it won’t just be from the free agents and college players selected in the NFL Draft.
Quarterback Patrick Mahomes will sport a newer hairstyle than Chiefs fans are accustomed to. Instead of his signature mohawk fade, Mahomes’ hair will be trimmed to more of a crew cut.
Why the change? Here’s what the quarterback had to say on Wednesday:
“I’ve wanted to do it for a while but it was kind of one of those superstitions, I kept winning the Super Bowl which is a good thing but I didn’t want to cut the hair while I was doing it. I told everybody during the season that win or lose, if we win three in a row or if we lose, I’m getting a haircut like that’s enough. I’m very excited. I’ve looked at some videos from last year and I can’t believe all you guys let me keep that nappy hair for so long, like I look way better now with the short hair, so I’ll be keeping this going forward.”
