“Doing what I do every single day, and then knowing that as long I’m doing everything the right way, the way that He’d want me to do it, then I can walk off the field with my head held high and be able to be the man that I’m supposed to be,” said Mahomes. “It’s given me a lot of blessing in my life and I’m trying to maximize and glorify Him in everything I do.”
In an interview on the field, Mahomes shared that his team never lost faith throughout the duration of their hard-fought road to football’s biggest stage.
“We never lost faith, that’s the biggest thing,” said Mahomes. “Everybody on this team, no one has their head down and we believe in each other and that’s what we preached all year long.”
One of his teammates, guard Stefen Wisniewski, also shouted praises to the King after making it through a very challenging time earlier in the season. Wisniewski was cut by the Philadelphia Eagles at the end of the summer before being picked up by the Chiefs. Hitting that low-point in his career forced him to his knees.
“The best place you can be in life is the center of God’s will,” said Wisniewski. “And the center of God’s will for my life was unemployed for 5 weeks. And it was a challenge and He was with me and I leaned on Him during that time and I trusted Him, praised Him. I knew that if He wanted to, He could exalt me again and it was just my job to humble myself before him, and here I am about to start in the Super Bowl. That’s all because of God.”
