According to the letter released in The Players Tribune, Mahomes wrote:
"Dear NFL Coaches and General Managers, For months now, I've been answering your questions to the best of my ability. Walking you through my game tape, reciting plays back to you and breaking down my decision-making process, from what time I go to bed to what I eat for breakfast every morning.”
He added, "You've watched me run and jump and lift weights and throw the ball as far as I can. You've wondered aloud if I can adjust to the speed of the pro game and adapt to the complexity of an NFL offense. All of those things are important and, for the most part, they all involve football in some way. But they're still not quite football. They're not the same as being out there in a game, in the huddle with my team.”
Mahomes continued, "I will not whine or complain during the process. I won't be a distraction, on or off the field. I will put in the hours to master your playbook. I won't stop until I get everything right, down to the smallest detail. I may make mistakes along the way. And I won't win every single game I play during my career. I won't retire with a perfect passer rating or zero career interceptions. But I'll try as hard as anybody.
In his letter further, the player said, "I'm ready to start the journey to a championship. And, more than anything else in the world, I'm ready to suit up and play some football. The sooner we can get to it, the better.” “Just wait until you see me in the huddle,” Mahomes wrote, concluding his letter.
