What a fucking offseason for Mahomes! First the 10yr/$500milly contract and now this? Sheesh. I guess that $10 million signing bonus was burning a hole in his pocket!

The craziest part of this story is that Mahomes was actually drafted in 2014 by the Detroit Tigers in the 37th round but opted to return to college to play QB1 for Texas Tech — now just six years later he owns an MLB team. Unreal. It’s Patrick Mahomes world and we’re just living in it.

UPDATE: Mahomes is actually not the youngest profestional sports owner in history, that honor goes to Serena Williams 2 year old daughter:
