In a Fox Sunday pregame interview, the seven-time Super Bowl champion spoke with the current MVP. Once more, Patrick Mahomes is defending his dad bod!
The three-time Super Bowl champion spoke with the seven-time champion Tom Brady about everything from his legacy and family to his own body in an interview that was broadcast prior to the Kansas City Chiefs vs. San Francisco 49ers game on Sunday, October 20.
Brady, who is well-known for closely following his own nutrition, concurred.
Brady, 47, jokingly said, Weve got to keep a little padding there. They dont realize that we cant always look like those receivers, which is why were constantly getting hit.
Critics who make fun of the Chiefs stars padding have been amusing to the father of two, who is expecting another with wife Brittany Mahomes.
Rice was wearing a jersey that had the widely shared image of a shirtless Mahomes celebrating the Chiefs victory in the AFC Championship the previous season.
In a post on X at the time, Mahomes wrote, Yoooo why they have to do me like that!?!?!?, along with three laughing emojis and the hashtag #DadBodSzn.
There is a method to the Texas-based trainers insanity, he revealed in an interview with PEOPLE last month.
Stroupe, who has trained Mahomes for 20 years, told PEOPLE, Ill be the first to tell you that I think an NFL quarterback should have at least 14% body fat. Its from the perspective of force absorption, not a harmful one.
