Patrick Mahomes was, in fact, Houdini-like on the Chiefs’ third touchdown of the game against the Tampa Bay Bucs on Sunday.
The play saw him scramble backward out of the pocket and eventually run down the right sideline where it looked like he was going to run it in. Instead, he spun away from Devin White and chucked up a quick little jump-shot pass to Clyde Edwards-Helaire in the end-zone for the score.
A still shot from that moment shows Mahomes actually sticking his tongue out at White before that spin.

Mahomes was clearly fired up about this game as he couldn’t get over the pain he felt reminiscing about the Chiefs’ Super Bowl 55 loss to the Buccaneers, which had come at Raymond James Stadium.
