Patrick Mahomes Shared Classy Postgame Moment With Maxx Crosby After Chiefs’ Ugly Loss to Raiders

Respect.

Patrick Mahomes and the Kansas City Chiefs had rough Christmas Day, losing at home to the Las Vegas Raiders, 20–14.

The ugly loss at Arrowhead drops the Chiefs to 9–6 on the season and takes them out of the running for the No. 1 seed in the AFC.

Patrick Mahomes, who was seen berating his offensive linemen during a heated sideline moment in the first half, had a rough game in the loss. He threw for 235 yards and had just one TD and one interception.

While Mahomes was often very angry during the game, he was all class after it, sharing this great moment with Maxx Crosby moments after the final whistle: 

Respect.
