Patrick Mahomes is set to begin his quest on Thursday to lead his team to a third consecutive Super Bowl victory when his Kansas City Chiefs kick off the NFL season against the Baltimore Ravens in a rematch of last year’s AFC Championship game.
In the meantime, Mahomes clearly spent his last free weekend watching some college football and had high praise for one quarterback on Saturday.
Nebraska freshman quarterback Dylan Raiola made his debut on Saturday and led his Cornhuskers to a 40-7 win over UTEP and caught the eyes of Mahomes with his first touchdown, a 59-yard dime up the right sideline to Isaiah Neyor, to which Mahomes replied, “Lil cuzzo!!”

The joke is a reference to earlier in the summer when Raiola appeared on campus for the first time and went viral for sharing a striking resemblance to Mahomes, and Mahomes joked that Raiola was his little cousin.
He jokes, but Raiola really does look like he could be his cousin.
Raiola is the son of former Detroit Lions center Dominic Raiola and was one of the biggest quarterback recruits in the nation this past season.
As a five-star true freshman, he has raised expectations for this entire program that was desperately in need of a shot in the arm and hasn’t won more than five games in a season since 2016.
Raiola went 19-for-27 in his debut for 238 yards and a pair of touchdowns in the rout and will have a matchup with the media darlings of college football in Week 2 when they take on Colorado.
