Mecole Hardman’s August prediction of beating the 49ers in the Super Bowl came true… kind of

Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver Mecole Hardman started the season with the New York Jets, and it was there he’d predict a Super Bowl victory over the San Francisco 49ers.

Back in August 2023, Oz the Mentalist visited the Jets and brought Hardman up for a moment of prognostication.

It’d end with Harmdan predicting the Jets would beat the 49ers in the Super Bowl with a 31-21 score, which Oz the Mentalist revealed on a board behind Hardman to the shock of everyone in the room.

Well, Hardman’s prediction was partly right, as he was part of a team that defeated the 49ers in the big game. The only difference was the team (the Chiefs, where he got traded back to later in the 2023 season) and the score (25-22).

This is still a pretty wild coincidence, as we’re guessing not even the world’s best guessers could’ve seen this ending coming.

Well, Hardman did, just only in part. The fact that he caught the game-winning touchdown made it even sweeter.
