"Yeah he's been the MVP,"said Andy Reid. "He's done good. He's a heck of a player, I was fortunate enough to be around a 3-time MVP and a couple of guys who were right on the edge of being the MVP. This guys is in that category."
Mahomes is taking a much more humble approach.
"There are a lot of guys that have played this year that I feel like deserve the MVP. It's not up to me. I just go out there and play my game and try to win football games and let all that stuff handle itself after the season," said Mahomes.
"1-5 is a special individual," said tight end Travis Kelce. "What he does for this team, for this community, it's unbelievable. It sure has been a pleasure to play with him and witness the greatness that he has been able to put out there on the field."
