Kansas City Chiefs’ Coach Andy Reid Officially Sign in Johnny Manziel Ahead of Season. Drops Down Chiefs’ QB Patrick Mahomes
Former NFL quarterback Johnny Manziel recently said he believes Patrick Mahomes’ reign with the Kansas City Chiefs almost didn’t happen.
Manziel was appearing on the ‘The Rush Podcast,’ when he stated that he nearly signed with the Chiefs as a free agent back in 2017, which could have resulted in Kansas City not drafting Mahomes that year.

‘I thought I was going to sign in Kansas City the same year that Mahomes got drafted,’ Manziel said.
So I think if they wouldn’t have taken a quarterback, which thank God they did, I think I could have ended up there.’
Had Manziel signed with the Chiefs he likely would have occupied the backup QB spot behind incumbent starter Alex Smith, who had just been named to his second Pro Bowl after leading the team to a 12-4 record.
