KANSAS CITY, MISSOURI, JUL 8 – Patrick Mahomes' trainer emphasized the quarterback's top NFL metrics and career achievements while rejecting criticism of his physique as irrelevant to his performance.
- In early July 2025, NFL star Patrick Mahomes came under fire from radio personality Kevin Kietzman for posting shirtless pictures during his July 4 holiday celebrations.
- Kietzman, a former sports journalist and co-founder of Kansas City's first all-sports radio station, said Mahomes was fat and an embarrassment, urging him to emulate Tom Brady rather than Ben Roethlisberger.
- Trainer Bobby Stroupe and analyst Mike Florio defended Mahomes by stating his physique includes natural protective thickness and does not indicate poor conditioning or readiness.
- Mahomes, a 29-year-old three-time Super Bowl MVP and two-time NFL MVP, signed a 10-year, $477 million contract in 2020 and responded to the criticism on social media saying, "Yoooo why they have to do me like that?!"
- The dispute underscores debates about athlete physiques as Mahomes prepares to enter his ninth NFL season with supporters affirming his elite status and durability.
