Patrick Mahomes is the ultimate football guy.
On Saturday, Mahomes was pulled from the game after suffering an injury when he was pulled to the ground.
Some are calling Arden Key’s takedown of Patrick Mahomes dirty because of the way he lands on his leg. Others say he didn’t do anything wrong.

Chiefs head coach Andy Reid pulled Mahomes from the game and told him to go to the locker room to get looked at. Mahomes didn’t want to leave the game and pleaded with Reid to not take him out.
