NFL star Patrick Mahomes is known for his outrageous passing skills.
And the Kansas City Chiefs quarterback showed he has a new trick up his sleeve during organized practice this week.

Mahomes threw an incredible behind-the-back pass to rookie running back Carson Steele.
And Steele completed the move with a one-handed catch of his own.
Mahomes has yet to use the trick play in an NFL game despite using a series of no-look passes in his career.
And the three-time Super Bowl champion admits he is too nervous to do so – even though head coach Andy Reid wants him to try it out.
“I think it was we didn’t play as well offensively enough for me to pull the behind-the-back pass off this last year,” Mahomes told Fox Sports’ show First Things First.
“But it’s no one else’s fault than myself, because Coach Reid wants me to throw it behind the back more than anyone in the world.
“And so he deliberately puts in plays that I have the opportunity to throw the ball behind the back.
“So it’s not a coaching thing. It’s me not having that confidence to do it in a game.”
Mahomes says he plans to adopt the play one day – and potentially to tight end Travis Kelce.
“But one of these games man we’ve got to do it,” he added.
“There’s been too much hype on it. We’ve got to do it and hopefully it’s to Trav.
“He’s the best at judging that behind-the-back pass.”
Mahomes recently added another accolade to his growing list of accomplishments.
The quarterback has been named the highest-paid NFL star for marketing income over the past year.
Mahomes earned an incredible $3.6 million in group licensing and marketing income during the 12 months through February, according to the NFL Players Association.
The NFL star was followed on the exclusive list by Philadelphia Eagles star Jalen Hurts ($2.7 million) and Buffalo Bills counterpart Josh Allen ($2.5 million), per Sportico.
Mahomes has also done wonders for a coffee brand.
The 28-year-old subtly promoted his latest endeavor during his press conference at Organized Team Activities last month.
He wore a T-shirt that read, “THRONE SPORT COFFEE.”
Only hours later, the Mahomes power was there for all to see when the brand became the No.1 best-selling, ready-to-drink coffee on Amazon.
