Overview
- Jeremiyah Love said on The Rich Eisen Show that Patrick Mahomes is the best quarterback right now and that it would be an honor to play with him.
- Mock drafts have frequently linked the Missouri native to the Chiefs at pick No. 9, yet Rich Eisen and ESPN’s Matt Miller now point to the Saints at No. 8 as a realistic move that could take him off the board first.
- Love reportedly had a formal meeting with Kansas City at the NFL Scouting Combine and reiterated that Kansas City would keep him close to his St. Louis home.
- Kansas City’s interest is set against a 6-11 season, Mahomes’ Week 15 ACL tear, potential free agency for Isiah Pacheco and Kareem Hunt, and the hiring of DeMarco Murray to oversee a revamped backfield.
- After a 2025 breakout with 1,372 rushing yards, 18 touchdowns and notable receiving production, Love highlighted both his explosive-run profile and his confidence in pass protection.
