Mahomes pushing Chiefs to add behind-the-back throw to game plan

Patrick Mahomes' best magic trick may have yet to be seen.

The Kansas City Chiefs quarterback, who's already produced several jaw-dropping moments over his short NFL career, has been practicing a behind-the-back throw for years and frequently pushes to incorporate the pass during games, according to James Palmer of NFL Network.

"(Mahomes) tries it all the time because he keeps lobbying for coach (Andy) Reid to put it in the system," backup signal-caller Chad Henne said. "He tells coach Reid, 'I can option this way and then throw it back this way', and I'm like, 'Ahhh, let's just take care of the ball.'"

Wide receiver Demarcus Robinson wouldn't be surprised if Mahomes unveiled his magic during Super Bowl LIV.

"I think he's got a little trick up his sleeve, but I don't want to spoil nothing," Robinson said.

The wideout added: "He can get it downfield a good 20 yards and he's pretty accurate, too, honestly."

If Mahomes ever attempts his trickery in a game, Chiefs quarterbacks coach Mike Kafka wants to see him execute.

"You try not to keep it in practice and have it more on the side," he said. "He has an unbelievable ability to manipulate the football. He works it. He tries to tick me off with some of that stuff.

"If it happened in a game, it better be complete."
