Patrick Mahomes was named MVP as he lifted the Kansas City Chiefs to Super Bowl LVII victory with a 38-35 win over the Philadelphia Eagles on Sunday night.
Following the victory, Mahomes and the Chiefs will head to Disney World to partake in the winners’ parade, which is set to commence at 4:30 p.m. ET on Monday. Mahomes walked away with the MVP title despite aggravating his high ankle injury during the first half of the Eagles’ game. He continued with the game despite the setback, even scrambling 26 yards on the drive leading up to the Chiefs’ game-winning field goal.
“It felt great until I kind of rolled it a little bit,” Mahomes said of his injury. “I thought I felt really good and then that happened, and I had a lot of soreness going through into halftime and was able to move it around, kind of get taped up a little bit, and go out there in that second half. It didn’t feel good, but I was going to leave it all out there.”
This triumph marks the Chiefs’ Super Bowl comeback, having lost 31-9 to the Tampa Bay Buccanneers in Super Bowl LV. By winning this year’s Super Bowl, Mahomes becomes the 13th quarterback in the NFL to win multiple Super Bowl championships.
