Riddick: Chiefs 'Thought About' Starting Patrick Mahomes as a Rookie

Quote:
"There was a point in time, early in Patrick's rookie year — they thought about putting him in there. 'Should we just go ahead and put him in there?'"
"Just bench Alex Smith because Mahomes is just this sort of dual-threat good," Torre interjected.
"Exactly," Riddick said. "Because he was doing stuff from out the gate that they were looking at each other like, 'Oh my god.' I know that for a fact. I know! I know, and they had to sit on their hands because they were still winning, Alex was having a career year, but they also knew, 'Man, this 15, boy, woo, my god!' And they had to forcibly keep themselves from putting him in the game."
