The Mahomes effect is real: Ben Shelton channels NFL swagger after big win

Article arrow_drop_down

Patrick Mahomes is no longer just a football icon, he’s becoming a global sports trendsetter. From his signature no-look passes to his confident celebrations, Mahomes has carved out a style that’s being copied in sports far from the gridiron. Case in point: rising tennis star Ben Shelton recently showed off a Mahomes-style celebration after a powerful win at the BMW Open in Munich. The moment caught the eye of none other than Jason Kelce, who commented on social media that “Pat Mahomes‘ swag is starting to permeate other sports.”

Patrick Mahomes gives in to Brittany Mahomes selfie request even at the risk of being recognized

Shelton’s energetic post-match display, complete with a headband, roaring pose, and that iconic “phone call” celebration, instantly went viral. Some fans loved the energy; others thought it was a bit much for an ATP 250 match. But love it or not, there’s no denying that this wasn’t just tennis, it was a cultural crossover moment.

From the court to the pitch: everyone wants some Mahomes magic

Shelton isn’t the only athlete taking cues from the Super Bowl MVP. Real Madrid’s teenage sensation Endrick recently admitted that Mahomes is a big style inspiration for him. During an interview, the Brazilian star said he admires Mahomes‘ swagger and how he carries himself during games. Whether it’s the way he dresses, his attitude under pressure, or just that magnetic confidence, Mahomes has become the kind of athlete other athletes want to emulate.

And it’s not just about celebrations. Shelton has also adopted some of Mahomes‘ aesthetic, from the hair to the headgear, making his own identity on the court while tipping his cap to the NFL star.

Meanwhile, Jalen Hurts is making history

While Mahomes is inspiring athletes worldwide, his former Super Bowl rival is enjoying his own moment in the spotlight. Jalen Hurts was just named to the 2025 TIME100 list, joining the Icons category alongside legends like Derek Jeter and Bobbi Brown. After leading the Eagles to a dominant 40-22 Super Bowl win over the Chiefs, Hurts cemented his place in the sport’s elite.

Derek Jeter, who wrote Hurts‘ TIME100 tribute, praised his resilience and leadership, saying, “What Jalen Hurts went through would break a lot of people. But not him.” From heartbreak to hero, Hurts‘ comeback story continues to inspire, and it’s clear both he and Mahomes are redefining what greatness looks like across sports.

Jerry Jones blasts NFL after Shedeur Sanders snub: “I know what a winner he is”

Jerry Jones is outraged over the NFL's decision to pass on Shedeur Sanders in the draft. After the former Colorado star slipped to the third round of the 2025 NFL Draft, the Dallas Cowboys owner was quick to praise the young quarterback and question why teams overlooked him for so long. The Sanders saga began well before draft day. The former Buffaloes quarterback finished his college career as one of the top prospects, but as the weeks went by, his stock declined, and by draft day, his fate was among the most uncertain of the elite candidates. Rumors of character flaws and poor interviews with team executives severely damaged Sanders' reputation. Scouting reports highlighted issues such as inconsistent rhythm, a weaker-than-expected arm for an NFL starter, and below-average size for a professional quarterback. The first three rounds of the draft […]

Que Jogo é Esse: O que Cafu pensa sobre a seleção brasileira

Já são 28 dias sem treinador, e o começo das maiores competições de clubes talvez tenha eclipsado um pouco sua crise. Aproveitei que vim nesta semana para Madri, capital da Espanha, para a cobertura de mais um prêmio Laureus e resolvi conversar com quem entende do assunto. Propus ao Cafu, capitão do penta e campeão no tetra, jogador com mais jogos com a amarelinha e embaixador do prêmio, um bate-papo para tentar entender a crise no nosso selecionado. Quais os caminhos? De quem é a culpa? O que fazer? Neste espaço, tenho a liberdade de confessar que discordei das maiorias das respostas do ex-jogador. Mas não dá para ignorá-las quando o assunto é a seleção brasileira... Você já viveu momentos difíceis com a seleção. Como enxerga a fase atual do time? É pior do que as que você enfrentou? Foi […]

Casagrande indica time que não ganha o Brasileirão

Casagrande em comentário feito no "Galvão e Amigos" da Band (Reprodução - YouTube) Casagrande está mesmo convencido de que o Corinthians não tem chances reais de brigar pelo título do Brasileirão Série A em 2025. Em vídeo publicado neste sábado (26), ele exaltou o clube por fechar com Dorival Júnior, mas pontuou que o foco em termos de títulos deve ser a Copa do Brasil. Na avaliação do ex-atacante, o plantel mais enxuto é uma tônica que atrapalha o alvinegro em um certame de 38 rodadas. Mediante ao cenário financeiro delicado do clube, ele não acredita em reforços de peso na próxima janela do mercado da bola.
