Patrick Mahomes' NFL career is only three years young, but the Kansas City Chiefs quarterback already knows where he wants it to end.
"The people are what really drew me to Kansas City, and I hope I get to play there the rest of my career," Mahomes said Wednesday. "The people and how they accept you, how they care about you more as a person than they do as a player and how much passion they have for the Kansas City Chiefs.
"It's special, and it's somewhere where I want to be for the rest of my career."
Mahomes will lead the Chiefs in their first Super Bowl appearance in 50 years when they take the field for Sunday's championship game. The franchise is already prioritizing an extension for the 2018 NFL MVP, but Chiefs owner Clark Hunt said Tuesday a new deal could come in 2021.
"I don't want to say necessarily it has to be this offseason, but I will say that it's a priority to get him done. I hope Patrick is here for his entire career and that's going to be our goal," Hunt said.
