Patrick Mahomes Dad Bod diet: What does the Chiefs QB eat to put on weight and lose the line?

As the Kansas City Chiefs players returned to base for organized team activites (OTAS) this week, Patrick Mahomes’ arrival caused a stir amongst the fans.

The quarterback earned a well-deserved three-month break after guiding the team to their second consecutive Super Bowl trophy, and it appears he has been indulging in a heavy food diet.

So much so that fans have been mocking the 28-year-old for having a ‘dad bod’, which relates to men who don’t take care of their body, after images of him emerged on the practice field.

But it is fair to say he is carrying more bulk since that game, and with no football to help him burn off his calories from his mega diet, it is no surprise.

The 28-year-old has had to defend himself from criticism of his physique after he went shirtless following their AFC Championship title victory over the Baltimore Ravens.

“I definitely have the dad bod a little bit. I’ll also say I have a great body for a quarterback,” Mahomes said. “You’ve got to have some padding in there to take the hits that we take.”
