Mahomes' teammates think his voice sounds like Kermit the Frog
Patrick Mahomes' unique voice has attracted almost as much attention as his strong play this season.
The Kansas City Chiefs' star quarterback - who's led the NFL's best offense through four weeks - recently told ESPN's Lisa Salters that his teammates and head coach Andy Reid will imitate his voice as a way of keeping him grounded.
"If I have ever gotten too big of a head, they just kinda bring out the voice, you know, they try to mimic my voice," Mahomes told Salters, per Cork Gaines of Business Insider. "That's kinda gotten its thing in the locker room."
Most of Mahomes' teammates seem to agree that he sounds like Kermit the Frog.
"It's like he's off 'The Muppets,' man, stuck between like, the Cookie Monster and Kermit the Frog, man," tight end Travis Kelce told Yahoo Sports' Terez Paylor on Wednesday. "It's a mix of the two."
"I think everybody kind of does a 'Kermit the Frog' voice," backup quarterback Chad Henne told Vahe Gregorian of the Kansas City Star.
Reid described Mahomes as sounding "froggish" during a press conference Wednesday, but declined to show off his supposedly spot-on impersonation.
"Maybe it will come out some day at the end of the year," Reid added.
