Patrick Mahomes responds to possibility Trump will attend Super Bowl LIX

Gracie Hunt appears on OutKick's ‘Gaines for Girls’ podcast and reacts to President Donald Trump congratulating the Chiefs on their AFC title.

Donald Trump is expected to become the first sitting president to attend a Super Bowl Sunday to watch Patrick Mahomes and the Kansas City Chiefs attempt to become the first team in NFL history to win a third straight Super Bowl. 

Mahomes gave his thoughts on Trump attending the game to reporters Wednesday. 

"It's always cool to be able to play in front of a sitting president," Mahomes said. "Someone that is at the top position in our country."

Earlier Wednesday, when Trump was asked who he expected to win the Super Bowl, the president didn't give a definitive answer but alluded to Mahomes' success. 

"I don’t want to say, but there’s a certain quarterback that seems to be a pretty good winner," Trump said when asked which team he's rooting for.

While Trump didn't identify Mahomes by name, he has expressed fondness and respect for the quarterback and his wife Brittany in recent months. The other quarterback playing in the game, Eagles star Jalen Hurts, has yet to win a Super Bowl.

Mahomes recognized Trump was probably talking about him and gave his thoughts about the cryptic praise from the president. 

"It's cool to hear that he's seen me play football and respects the game that I play," Mahomes told reporters Wednesday.
