The new year has already ushered in new changes for the Kansas City Chiefs, who recently made headlines for trading away All-Pro guard Joe Thuney amid the franchise’s hopes to retool its offensive line this offseason.
Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes has mostly laid low on social media after an embarrassing 40-22 blowout loss to the Philadelphia Eagles in Super Bowl LIX but did debut a short new haircut last month. Just days away from the official start of NFL free agency, some fans think Mahomes has made another distinguishing physical change: He’s losing the dad bod.
Mahomes shared a new photo of himself lifting weights at the gym on his Instagram Stories this week, and he arguably looked slimmer than usual in the torso area.
Take a look for yourself:
The three-time Super Bowl champ hasn’t been shy about showing off his dad bod in recent years. In January 2024, Inside the NFL shared a revealing locker room video that gave viewers a clear picture of Mahomes’s pudgy upper half.
