Patrick Mahomes left stunned by jaw-dropping flag football catch
The 2025 NFL Flag Championships were broadcast on ESPN, and Brysen Wright of Jaguars Elite produced a true highlight reel moment which ultimately went viral online.
With three defenders trying to stay with him, Wright found a little space in the endzone and stretched to make a jaw-dropping catch with just one hand.
Wright was able to complete the catch as he fell to the ground, and the play was posted by the NFL to X - where it was marveled at by Mahomes.
'Yooo what?,' he replied with three laughing-crying emojis.
The video has racked up 3.6million views on X as of Saturday night, as broadcasters Tom Hart and Jordan Rodgers were shocked by it as well.
And Patrick Mahomes was left stunned by the play after watching it online
'I'm not sure I have seen a better catch, period,' Hart said.
'Tom, we have called a lot of games together. That is the best catch I have ever seen in-person,' Rodgers replied.
Flag football is set to debut at the Olympics in 2028 with both men's and women's divisions.
And NFL owners recently approved a resolution allowing the league's players to suit up in the sport.
While Mahomes said in May that he'll 'probably leave [flag football] to the younger guys,' there has been speculation that Eagles quarterback Jalen Hurts could participate after the NFL ran a commercial of him lighting the Olympic torch.
'It's an incredible honor for any athlete to represent their country in the Olympics, which is the pinnacle of global sport' commissioner Roger Goodell said after the resolution.
'I know first-hand that the inclusion of flag football in the Olympics has sparked a tremendous amount of excitement among NFL players interested in the chance to compete for their country on the world stage. We are thrilled that they will now have the chance.'
Wright, meanwhile, seems to have a bright future ahead of him in football as well.
The class of 2028 wide receiver out of Jacksonville, Florida has already received a slew of college offers, including from schools like Georgia, Florida, Wisconsin, Tennessee, Texas, and Ohio State.

Wyndham Clark finally breaks silence after being banned from US Open course
Wyndham Clark has finally broken his silence after destroying his locker at Oakmont Country Club and receiving a ban from the course. Clark lost his temper on June 16 at this year's US Open and destroyed two locker doors - resulting in Oakmont CC president John Lynch banning the American from the property. More than a month later, Clark has apologized for his actions - and revealed his future at Oakmont is unclear. 'That's up to them,' Clark told reporters on Sunday from The Open, via ESPN. 'I really don't know. I would hope so. It's a fantastic course and place, but that's up to them. 'I did something awful, and I'm really sorry for it. Hopefully, they have it in their heart to forgive me, and maybe in the future I'll be able to play there.' In a letter sent out to the members of the club, Lynch said that the ban could be lifted if Clark pays for the damages, makes a 'meaningful contribution' to a charity of Oakmont's choosing, and undergoes counseling and/or anger management therapy. While Clark called it a 'no-brainer' to pay for the damages, he seemed taken aback that his transgressions were made public. 'We were hoping it was going to be private,' he said. 'I'll just leave it at that.' Oakmont won't host the US Open again until 2033, when Clark will be 40 years old. He won the event in 2023, giving him a 10-year exemption in the competition. This year, he missed the cut after bogeying the final hole of round two. Clark, who also had an anger incident at the PGA Championship in May, touched on the mental struggles he's been working to improve in the last two years. 'I've been pretty open about my mental shift and change to get better, and I did that in '23 and '24, and then having a tough year and all the expectations and just frustration all coming together, and I did two stupid things,' he said. 'But one thing that it did do is wake me up and get me back into the person I know I am and the person I want to be. 'I hope those things don't reflect because I don't think they reflect on who I am, and going forward that stuff is not going to happen again.' During the PGA Championship at the Quail Hollow Club in Charlotte, Clark let out his frustration at the course's 16th hole during the second round by violently whipping his driver backwards - destroying an advertising board. After that incident, he said his actions were 'uncalled for', and that it was' clear that I have things I need to work on. 'I hold myself to a high standard, trying to always play for something bigger than myself, and yesterday I fell short of those standards. Clark's mea culpa on Sunday came after a strong finish at Portrush, as he tied for fourth at the tournament with a six-under final round.

BREAKING NEWS Andy Reid breaks silence on devastating Kansas City Chiefs setback before training camp
Kansas City Chiefs head coach Andy Reid has admitted he is starting training camp completely in the dark over the status of wide receiver Rashee Rice. Last week, Rice was sentenced to 30 days in jail for causing a chain-reaction crash that left multiple people injured on a Dallas highway last year. Rice was filmed fleeing the scene after the smash on March 30, 2024. While Rice has freedom on when he serves time, the ruling from authorities also clears the way for the NFL to ban him before the start of the 2025 season. But as it stands, Reid doesn't know for certain if Rice will be suspended, even though it is anticipated. He said he is doing his best to make it business as usual as his team reports for camp on Monday. Reid also has to consider that Rice is returning from an ACL tear that curtailed his season in the early stages last year. 'We're going to progress as normal with him,' Reid said on Sunday night. 'He'll go in and take all the reps that he'll normally take. 'We always rotate that position. Depending on what happens here with the future - whoever needs to play will step in and know what they are doing and be in good shape to do it.' Rice was accidentally injured by his own quarterback, Patrick Mahomes, in Week 4 of the 2024 campaign. Mahomes threw an interception against the Los Angeles Chargers and then collided with Rice when he tried to tackle Kristian Fulton - who, ironically, is now his teammate after signing for the Chiefs in the offseason. 'We'll keep an eye on that,' Reid added on Rice's knee injury. 'As far as pulling back because of suspensions or whatever, you know, we're going forward. And then we'll monitor him as far as (the injury) goes.' The NFL said after Rice's jail ruling that 'we have been closely monitoring all developments in the matter which remains under review.' Chiefs camp begins with testing and meetings on Tuesday, followed by the first full-squad workout on Wednesday, when temperatures are expected to hit triple digits. Rice pleaded guilty to two third-degree felony charges of collision involving serious bodily injury and racing on a highway causing bodily injury. As part of a plea agreement Rice was sentenced to five years of deferred probation and 30 days in jail as a condition of his probation. The Dallas County District Attorney's Office said that the 25-year-old Rice also was required to pay the victims for their out-of-pocket medical expenses, which totaled about $115,000. Rice was driving a Lamborghini Urus SUV at 119 mph (191 kph) when he made "multiple aggressive maneuvers around traffic" and struck other vehicles, prosecutors said. After the crash on North Central Expressway, prosecutors said, Rice failed to check on the welfare of those in the other vehicles and fled on foot. Rice said in a statement issued by his attorney that he´s had 'a lot of sleepless nights thinking about the damages my actions caused, and I will continue working within my means to make sure that everyone impacted will be made whole.' His return to the field for the Chiefs, whenever it comes, is considered key as Reid and his men try and avenge their crushing Super Bowl loss back in February. Standing on the brink of an historic three-peat, the Chiefs were blown away by the Philadelphia Eagles, losing 40-22 on the night in New Orleans. The Chiefs open the season against the Chargers in Sao Paulo, Brazil on September 5 before a rematch against the Eagles in Week 2.

Randall backing England to blossom further after summer tour triumph
The Bristol Bears scrum-half, 27, was one of six try-scorers in Washington DC as Steve Borthwick's side completed a transatlantic clean sweep of victories after an impressive 2-0 win in Argentina. Fellow Bear Gabriel Oghre also capped a memorable international debut when he dotted down for England's final try after coming on in the second half. The match in the American capital kicked off an hour later than planned due to a lightning strike in the area, with the game then halted by a further half an hour on 29 minutes when another struck within 10 miles of the ground when England were 14-0 up. But Borthwick's side, missing several key players on the British & Irish Lions Tour to Australia, kept their composure to extend their resurgent run that has now seen them rack up seven wins on the spin – their longest streak since back in 2020. Randall has loved life in the camp over the last few weeks and is relishing the prospect of returning ahead of crunch autumn internationals against the likes of Australia and New Zealand. 'It's really satisfying – I think we're building something really special here over last few campaigns,' he said. 'There are a few boys away with the Lions – that strength in depth comes through really nicely. 'I think we've showed that over the last few weeks. 'It's one of the tightest groups I've been a part of – generally everyone gets on with everyone and ultimately that's what makes a great team at the end of the day. 'Having that camaraderie – we're definitely building that really nicely.' Randall, Oghre, Curtis Langdon, Luke Northmore, Cadan Murley and Jack van Poortvliet all scored in a commanding albeit imperfect display at DC's Audi Field. USA grabbed a late consolation through Shilo Klein to give the home fans who remained something to cheer about but England's work was done as they ended their triumphant tour in style. Replacement Randall admits he has never experienced anything like the delays that led to the game finishing 90 minutes later than planned but hailed the group for dealing with it in the best way possible. 'It was a bit of a disruptive game but you've got to adapt to these things, which I think we did pretty well,' he said. 'It was tough conditions – the ball got greasy and slippery but we got what we wanted in the end. 'It's the first time in that situation – it's a weird one. 'It was just a case of when that delay came, switching off, relaxing and keep sipping away fluids as it's so hot. 'When the time comes to get back out there again, it's about getting switched, warming back up and ready to come on when needed.'
