Chiefs' Patrick Mahomes Teams Up With Soccer Legend In Adidas Commercial
Chiefs' Patrick Mahomes Teams Up With Soccer Legend In Adidas Commercial originally appeared on Athlon Sports.
Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes, across his years in the NFL, has had his fair share of commercials and promotional events.

But this last one might be his best yet, and it isn't due to the type of commercial he's in; it's who he is in it with.
Given that there are any number of stars who could appear with Patrick in the Adidas promotion, in the video, we see Mahomes going through his workout on a treadmill; however, he keeps glancing over to the person next to him.
And each time, he increases the speed on his treadmill, seemingly in competition with the person next to him. It isn't until a couple of seconds later that we see who Patrick is competing with...and it's Leo Messi.
Adidas posted the commercial to their Instagram page with the caption:

Having potentially the two biggest sporting stars on the planet together for a commercial is a good piece of business, with both Patrick and Leo being represented by Adidas.
Mahomes is no stranger to these kinds of commercials, and they are part and parcel of being one of the best in the world - everyone wants a piece of you to promote their brand.
With the Chiefs in the middle of their offseason, there is ample time for such commercials, but once training camp and the regular season roll around, time is limited.
Still, having Mahomes and Messi in the same commercial is quite the achievement for Adidas, and we imagine the sporting company will do quite well out of this.

Because we know Patrick and Leo will.

Maple Leafs Interested in Rival All-Star Amid Mitch Marner Uncertainty
Maple Leafs Interested in Rival All-Star Amid Mitch Marner Uncertainty originally appeared on Athlon Sports. With all the uncertainty involving star forward Mitch Marner, the Toronto Maple Leafs' front office will need to get creative to replace his services. Marner is expected to leave the team via free agency this summer, and in doing so, he would create a massive hole in the lineup. Advertisement The Toronto roster could look very different next season following another early playoff exit. But the front office is still determined to put together a strong team that can compete for a Stanley Cup. With Marner likely out, the Maple Leafs will need to strike quickly to build a strong roster. But it seems that they could be looking at a rival All-Star to fill the void. According to NHL insider Arthur Staple of The Athletic, the Maple Leafs could be targeting Mika Zibanejad of the New York Rangers. Adding Zibanejad to the mix could be a great way to replace the production of Marner in the lineup. The veteran center has scored at least 20 goals in eight straight seasons, and he could add a major boost to this offensive attack. Advertisement Last season, Zibanejad scored 20 goals and 42 assists for the Rangers. With New York seemingly tearing things down, Zibanejad could be a strong candidate to be moved this summer. New York Rangers left wing Artemi Panarin (10) and New York Rangers center Mika Zibanejad (93) talk to one another during the second period against the Nashville Predators at Madison Square Penner-Imagn Images The biggest downside to adding Zibanejad to the team is his contract. Zibanejad is on the books for five more seasons, with a salary of $8.5 million each year. However, if the Maple Leafs are serious about winning, this could be a smart move for them to consider. Zibanejad has been one of the more consistent players around the NHL in recent years and could help Toronto compete for a title next season.

Stars Predicted to Land Panthers All-Star in Massive Offseason Move
Stars Predicted to Land Panthers All-Star in Massive Offseason Move originally appeared on Athlon Sports. As the Florida Panthers continue their quest for a second straight Stanley Cup title, the entire organization is locked in. But the front office also has a small part of its focus on the upcoming offseason. Advertisement Florida is gearing up to have a few key, crucial players hit free agency, with center Sam Bennetter and defenseman Aaron Ekblad being the main ones. The Panthers will likely try to retain both players, but anytime a player hits free agency, anything can happen. Bennett seems more likely to stay with the Panthers, but Ekblad remains a wild card. There have been reports about Florida potentially allowing him to test the market, which could open the chance of him leaving. One team that could make sense for the Panthers' defenseman is the Dallas Stars. Dallas lost in the Western Conference Final once again and could be looking to make a splash this offseason. NHL insider Mark Lazerus of The Athletic linked the two sides together, naming Ekblad as a target for the Stars this summer. Advertisement "Miro Heiskanen is capable of playing on his off side; he's been doing it for years. But the Stars could use a good right-handed shot, and Ekblad fits the bill. He could slot in alongside Thomas Harley or Esa Lindell and give Dallas a terrific top four. But making the money work will be difficult, especially if Jim Nill plans to re-sign Matt Duchene and captain Jamie Benn," Lazerus wrote. Florida Panthers defenseman Aaron Ekblad (5) celebrates a goal with center Sam Bennett (9) in the second period against the Montreal Canadiens at FLA Live Arena. Jim Rassol-Imagn Images Ekblad scored three goals and 30 assists for the Panthers over 56 games this season. While his numbers were a little down, his impact on the team can't be overstated. The veteran has provided a massive boost to the team during the playoffs, scoring four goals and eight assists over 18 games. If he were to sign with the Stars, it could give this team a better chance to finally get over the hump.

Trae Young News Emerges on Friday Amid NBA Trade Rumors
Trae Young News Emerges on Friday Amid NBA Trade Rumors originally appeared on Athlon Sports. The Atlanta Hawks have a decision to make regarding their star player, Trae Young. The Hawks have a young group that has shown plenty of promise to help the organization in the future. Although they have a decent young squad, their best player doesn't fit their timeline. Advertisement Young is 26 and will turn 27 before the start of the 2025-26 NBA season. The Hawks have not been competitive in the past four seasons. They've also missed the playoffs in the past two years. Without a competitive group around him, it's been difficult for the star guard to make the most of his prime years. According to NBA reporter Evan Sidery, there's a chance Young won't be part of the Hawks' future. Atlanta Hawks guard Trae Young (11) controls the ball against the Philadelphia Ross-Imagn Images Sidery reported on X that some teams are monitoring the Hawks' situation with Young. The four-time All-Star is eligible to sign a four-year, $229 million extension. Unfortunately for the former college star, there have been talks that Atlanta isn't willing to give him the full amount. Advertisement "Young, who is eligible for a four-year, $229 million extension, wants to get paid but there's belief Atlanta might not want to offer him the full-scale amount," Sidery reported. ESPN's Bobby Marks believes the organization will offer Young a three-year contract extension worth $120 million. It's far from what the All-Star guard expects, but Marks believes taking a pay cut could be beneficial for the team to pursue a star to pair with their franchise star. If he doesn't sign the extension, Young will be an unrestricted free agent in 2026, since his five-year, $215 million deal is set to expire. The Hawks will try to avoid reaching that situation by potentially trading him to get something in return.
