Patrick Mahomes rules himself out of representing the United States in flag football at the 2028 Olympic Games

Kansas City Chiefs quarterback has no intention of playing flag football as Los Angeles Olympics in 2028 despite recent NFL owners vote permitting players to participate

Patrick Mahomes has ruled out playing flag football for the United States at the 2028 Olympic Games in Los Angeles.

NFL franchises recently approved a resolution that would allow players to compete in flag football as the sport makes its Olympic debut at the LA Games.

Kansas City Chiefs quarter-back Mahomes, who will be 32 when the Games begin, is excited to see American football debut at the Olympics but is content to watch on rather than participate.

“I’ll probably leave that to the younger guys,” the three-time Super Bowl-winning MVP said. “I’ll be a little older by the time that comes around.”
