Kelce on Mahomes: 'His knee didn't even look like a knee'

Well the leap (with extending the ball) is one of Brees' most famous bread-and-butter plays. He's a warrior and he's done it many, many times throughout his career. And usually with the patented leap and dive, Brees usually goes UP and lands on top of the pile, whereas the Mahomes sneak had him running into the scrum and into the pile and ending up hitting the ground at the bottom of the pile. It's really two totally different types of plays, in terms of where the QB's body ends up and how much contact they get.

But I'm talking about IF Payton called that play while Brees already had a serious ankle injury? That would be a completely different matter. My point was that Mahomes was already injured when that play was called....it's reckless and irresponsible to do that with your franchise QB.
