Tom Brady and Patrick Mahomes had a one-on-one chat ahead of the Super Bowl rematch on Sunday.
Brady was commentating on the Kansas City Chiefs’ game against the San Francisco 49ers. Before taking up his seat in the booth in his new broadcasting role, he sat down with Mahomes for a segment on FOX NFL Sunday.
The current Super Bowl champion expressed his admiration for the iconic quarterback. Seen as two of the greatest quarterbacks of all time, Mahomes and Brady have faced each other in a Super Bowl, with the latter winning with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers over the Chiefs.
However, since then, Kansas City and Mahomes have secured back-to-back Super Bowl championships, leading to comparisons between the two quarterbacks and debates about who is the superior player. Despite this narrative, both made it clear they are pleased to be compared to each other and share a great deal of admiration and respect.
When Brady asked Mahomes how he feels about being compared to him, he responded: “It’s honestly an honour. I’m not saying that because you’re sitting here.
“You did it the right way. I think more than even the Super Bowls, it was the consistency you showed every single year, every single day. You came to work and you came to win. Just for me, it gives me something to chase. It’s going to be hard to get there, but I’m going to do my best trying to get there.”
Replying to the incredible feat, Brady expressed his admiration saying: “I just want to say proud of you, keep doing your thing the right way.”

Back in the studio, Brady shared more sentiments: “First time ever, literally sitting on the other side, in the other chair. But it was really just a fun experience. Patrick’s such a cool guy. We probably could’ve sat there for another hour or two just talking about football and our lives and stuff.
“So many people look at the way that he performs on the field. I pay more attention to the stuff he does off the field, how he takes care of his teammates in the offseason.
“I know he’s going to be a great player once the season kicks off but he says all the right things, he does all the right things. What a performer, and the Chiefs are lucky to have him.”
