The NFL Scouting Combine is set to start this week with the potential for young draft prospects to impress scouts and boost their standings as teams look to build for the future.
Patrick Mahomes, one of the best quarterbacks in the NFL, appears to be set to have a close eye on potential teammates during this year’s Combine. He just has one request for the NFL Network.

“As the combine starts this week! All i ask is that @nflnetwork doesn’t use my 40 overlay anymore,” he wrote on X on Wednesday.
The Scouting Combine coverage will sometimes compare 40-yard dash times to those of the greatest at their positions. Mahomes came into the NFL in 2017 out of Texas Tech. He ran 4.80 during his sprint. Texas A&M quarterback Trevor Knight was the quickest among quarterbacks with a 4.54. Joshua Dobbs was next with a 4.64, followed by Deshaun Watson (4.66) and Mitchell Trubisky (4.67).
CHIEFS OWNER RANKED WORST IN NFL, PLAYERS UNION SURVEY SHOWS AFTER BACK-TO-BACK SUPER BOWLS
The Kansas City Chiefs appeared to be more concerned with his arm talent than anything else.
Through seven seasons, he has 28,424 passing yards and 219 passing touchdowns – not to mention the three Super Bowl titles he’s won in that span.
As far as his legs go, Mahomes showed his quickness on the biggest stage earlier this month. His wheels were partly what kept the Chiefs alive against the San Francisco 49ers.
Is there another Patrick Mahomes in this draft? Only time will tell.
