In an interview with Kay Adams, Mahomes labeled Maxx Crosby of the Las Vegas Raiders as one of his toughest competitors.

“I have so much respect for all those guys in the league that are about their craft, they’re about being better and better,” Mahomes said.

“Like he said, we’re going to compete. We know when we step on that football field, we’re going against each other, it’s the Raiders, it’s the Chiefs — it’s two of the greatest in the league going at each other snap [after] snap and continuing to do it twice a year.

“And so, there’s so much healthy respect, but when we get on that football field, it’s going to be trash talk.

“It’s going to be going out there, he’s going to try to get to me, I’m going to be trying to make big plays happen.

“But those are the guys — I always say, obviously, he’s on the other team, so I want to go against him and beat him.

“That’s the guys you want on your team, the guys who are going to leave it all out there, no matter what the score is, and be the best they can possibly be every snap.”

Crosby has proven himself to be one of the leagues scariest pass rushers.

When healthy, he racks up countless sacks every season.

In his six-year career, Crosby already has 59.5 sacks and 105 tackles for loss.


According to Mahomes, he is the best to ever line up against him.

“I think he’s sacked me the most out of anyone I’ve ever played against, so to me, he’s the best pass rusher I’ve played against,” Mahomes said.

“So, no offense to any other pass rusher — just putting it out there. But he is the best one that I’ve gone up against because he goes out there and he gives you the effort, he has the moves, and he has the skill.

“And I think it’s hard to have all three of those and have them year in and year out.”

Mahomes snubbed some pretty big names with his assessment like Garrett and TJ Watt.

Interestingly, Garrett has sacked Mahomes three times, once in each matchup against the Chiefs in his career.

However, it isn’t enough for Mahomes to consider him the best.
