Flag football will debut as an Olympic event at the 2028 Summer Olympics, but Kansas City Chiefs superstar quarterback Patrick Mahomes doesn’t expect to be slinging passes in Los Angeles.
“I’ll probably leave that to the younger guys,” Mahomes said Thursday, according to FOX Sports NFL reporter Henry McKenna. “I’ll be a little older by the time that comes around.” Mahomes will be 32 when the 2028 Games commence.
Last summer, the NFL named Philadelphia Eagles QB Jalen Hurts as the Olympic flag football ambassador.
Mahomes, a two-time NFL MVP and three-time Super Bowl MVP, totaled 3,928 passing yards, 26 passing touchdowns, 11 interceptions and a 93.5 passer rating last season, while completing 67.5% of his passes in a 15-2 campaign for the Chiefs. He also rushed for 307 yards and two touchdowns. Mahomes ranked second among QBs in rushing grade (91.5), 10th in overall grade (85.8) and 14th in passing grade (79.1) last season, per Pro Football Focus.
Despite being the No. 1 seed in the AFC, Mahomes and the Chiefs lost to the Eagles in Super Bowl LIX, 40-22, ending their three-peat aspirations. The Eagles’ win got them even with the Chiefs, who beat Philly in Super Bowl LVII.

Yankees downplay early losses to Dodgers in World Series rematch: ‘Every game is the same’
LOS ANGELES — Aaron Judge ambled down the dugout steps, collected his hat and his bat and disappeared into the clubhouse. The New York Yankees had just gotten drubbed 18-2 by the Los Angeles Dodgers, and Judge had supplied all of his team’s runs via solo homers. He had done his job.Everyone else? Well, infielder Pablo Reyes pitched the final inning for the Yankees. What does that tell you?AdvertisementStill, the Yankees maintained that losing both games to start the 2024 World Series rematch at Dodger Stadium wasn’t a big deal.“I think honestly every game is the same,” outfielder Cody Bellinger said. “You want to come out and you want to win. Losing the first two games of any series is tough. What we can do now is just kind of try to get a win tomorrow.“We want to win every […]
Bouzkovou na centrkurtu probralo Nadalovo kouzlo. Poslední česká naděje v singlu přesto zhasla
Paříž (od našeho zpravodaje) - „To jsem si ani neuvědomila, že jsem poslední Češka. Jsem ráda, že jsem byla ve třetím kole. Jen škoda, že ještě někdo nepřežil, abychom mohli reprezentovat dál,“ tvrdila Bouzková, která stejně jako několik jejích krajanek a krajanů měla ze svých vystoupení na oranžovém povrchu v tomto roce solidní pocity. „Ze začátku jsem na antuce moc ráda nehrála, ale poslední tři roky se v tom nacházím víc a víc, už se na ní učím hrát a využívat svoje zbraně.“První set tomu ale zrovna nenasvědčoval. „Ten by velice těžký, tam jsem to moc necítila. Dělala jsem hodně chyb. Ale ve druhém už to bylo to o dost lepší. Je škoda, že jsem nevyužila gamebaly na servisu. To mě mrzí, ale aspoň jsem jí to dokázala znepříjemnit,“ tvrdila Bouzková. Američance sebrala ve druhém dějství čtyři servisy, jenže také sama podání čtyřikrát ztratila.„Škoda, že jsem […]
