Patrick Mahomes has played in just five full seasons, but he's already well on his way to a Hall of Fame career.

NFL safety turned ESPN analyst Ryan Clark said that Mahomes' second Super Bowl victory on Sunday put him in rarified air, already calling him the third-best quarterback to ever play football.

"I'll put him top three right behind Tom Brady, [Joe] Montana, and there's Patrick Mahomes," he told TMZ Sports after Super Bowl LVII.

The Kansas City Chiefs quarterback is just 27 years old, so perhaps this is recency bias, but it's tough to get off to a better start in one's career. 

In his five full seasons since 2018, he has played in, and hosted, the AFC Championship in every single one. He's made the Super Bowl three times and won his second Super Bowl MVP on Sunday. Last Thursday, he was named a regular season MVP for the second time in his career.
