The picture comes from a segment on "Inside the NFL," where Mahomes says, "Great job today. Like I've been saying, we ain't done yet. Hey Chiefs on three," before the team comes together and counts it down.
This is a pretty standard locker room talk from the quarterback to his team. However, it's Mahomes' physique that's drawing attention.
Mahomes himself took to X in two separate posts to address the image.

"Yoooo why they have to do me like that!?!?!?" the two-time Super Bowl-winning quarterback said, with three laughing-face emojis and the hashtag "DadBodSZN."

He then quoted that post, adding, "Like i got kids!!!!" adding "@Chiefs @insidethenfl @NFL" and three more laughing emojis.
Fans on X had a field day with this picture.
