Despite being only 24 years old, Patrick Mahomes essentially decided to be a member of the Kansas City Chiefs for life.
The reigning Super Bowl MVP reached an agreement with Kansas City on a 10-year, NFL-record extension that'll keep him under contract through the 2031 campaign.
The deal sent the NFL community on Twitter into a frenzy:

I know Mahomes is great but you have to wonder if KC will regret locking him up that long before finding out whether or not Mitch Trubisky will come onto the market.

RE: Mahomes Extension

• It will be unprecedented
• It will have ties to the cap
• It will reset the entire market
• It will not be a true 10 yr deal
• There will be fluff….still
How much is this Mahomes 10 year deal worth you think?

$250,000,000- $300,000,000?? pic.twitter.com/wKEeISmWcJ
Is this better than a 1 year deal with 10 teams? https://t.co/bg6aGqjfRg

Since it’s a 10 year deal Mahomes will get 450/500 million, 2 or 3 restructures throughout the years to stay under the cap...

The Chiefs will return 20 of 22 starters from their Super Bowl winning roster, kept Eric Bienemy as their offensive coordinator, added Clyde Edwards-Helaire and just signed Patrick Mahomes to a 10-year extension through 2031. What an offseason.
