Patrick Mahomes delivered a rallying cry to his Chiefs teammates ahead of their Black Friday showdown against the Las Vegas Raiders.
The quarterback addressed Travis Kelce and Co outside the locker room as they prepared to take the field for the game at Arrowhead Stadium.
‘Energy all day, energy all day, how great do you want to be on every single snap?’ Mahomes asked his teammates.
‘What do you have on every single snap? I need it. Let’s go out there and dominate.’
A few minutes later, Mahomes told Amazon Prime that the Chiefs had ‘to find a way to get a win’ the ‘tough battle.’
The Chiefs headed into Friday’s game with a 10-1 record for the season, having lost against the Buffalo Bills before returning to winning ways against the Panthers.
Las Vegas won at Arrowhead Stadium last year and Antonio Pierce took his side back to Kansas City with the aim of denting the Chiefs’ Super Bowl hopes.
Pierce branded his team ‘the worst team in football’ ahead of the game against the back-to-back Super Bowl champions.
‘The best team in football against the worst team in football,’ is how Pierce described Friday’s matchup.
Taylor Swift was among the crowd and she aimed a wink at the cameraman after arriving to watch her boyfriend Kelce.
The pop sensation was joined by Travis’ mom Donna, her dad Scott, and her bodyguard Drew.
