Chiefs QB Patrick Mahomes mocked by Raiders players with a Kermit the Frog doll

The fuel for the Kansas City Chiefs and Las Vegas Raiders’ rivalry never runs low in their yearly battles for supremacy in the AFC West. In the early days of training camp, we already have more bulletin board material months before the rivals’ first meeting in 2024.

A video of the Raiders players joking around with a Kermit the Frog doll dressed as Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes has gone viral on social media. Mahomes’ voice has often been compared to the legendary Muppets character in past years, and the Raiders seem to have taken it to another level with their version as a puppet wearing a wig and small Mahomes jersey.

Safety Trey Taylor is the Raiders player using the doll poorly by imitating the three-time Super Bowl MVP and repeatedly saying the infamous ‘I’m Here’ line from Mahomes during his Monday Night Football performance against Las Vegas in 2022.

Mahomes and the Chiefs split their two meetings with the Raiders last season, which included the disappointing loss on Christmas Day at Arrowhead Stadium. Kansas City doesn’t need more motivation heading into the new season, but this video could be the extra spark to propel the squad for the unprecedented three-peat.
