Chiefs QB Patrick Mahomes Sends Monthly Gift to Former NFL All-Pro

Longtime Pittsburgh Steelers safety and six-time All-Pro Troy Polamalu shared a story about Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes that is yet another of example of the star QB’s high character.

Talking with former Steelers defensive lineman Cam Heyward on the “Not Just Football” podcast, Polamalu explained how Mahomes sends him and his family a monthly gift and have been doing so for several years.

First of all, I love telling this story about Pat because it’s who he is, and like somebody is what people don’t really know about him,” Polamalu began in the clip shared on the podcast’s X page on May 30. “I met him after his rookie year and, you know, he had a great rookie year… but man, from that moment he sends me a pair of shoes or a pair of sunglasses every month. So I get a — my kids are like, ‘Hey, Uncle Patty sent us [something].’ This is almost like seven or eight years though [that he has sent us something].”

Polamalu — who was a six-time All-Pro during his 12 seasons in Pittsburgh — also went on to explain that, despite Mahomes’s rise to stardom since the two first met, Mahomes “has never changed.”
