“First, my wife Brittany got them for me, so I’m not throwin’ y’all down, but I have to wear 'em, ya know,” Mahomes, 28, told the brothers of his former high-school sweetheart, 28.
“At the same time, I threw 'em on that first season [and] we had a pretty good season that season,” he explained of how it all started back in 2017.
He has worn them 89 times so far (if he only wears them during game days). Not the most insane thing ever.
You forgot playoff games, also games during his rookie season when he was a backup, and his 1 game he was rested at the end of a season. He almost certainly still wore them if he’s that superstitious. Probably also wore them on the day of the 2 games he was injured and recovering back in 2019.
So the number is closer to 121, still not that bad.
