Patrick Mahomes, the star quarterback for the Kansas City Chiefs, is not only focused on football during his time at training camp. He recently shared that he is excited to play the newly released EA Sports “College Football 25” video game in his downtime. Mahomes mentioned that this game was one of the reasons he decided to bring a TV to camp for the first time in his career, alongside the Olympics.
The return of a college football video game after a ten-year hiatus has sparked interest not only among fans but also among NFL players like Mahomes. With the limited free time players have between rigorous training sessions and team activities, games like “College Football 25” provide a welcome source of entertainment and relaxation.
It’s not surprising that Mahomes isn’t the only NFL player looking forward to diving into this new game. Many players across the league are expected to enjoy playing “College Football 25” during breaks at camp. The game’s popularity stems from the nostalgia associated with the return of college football gaming after a long absence.
Moreover, the upcoming Tokyo Olympics will also offer a unique form of entertainment for players like Mahomes. For instance, Chicago Bears safety Jonathan Owens will likely be following the gymnastics events closely, as his wife, Simone Biles, is a celebrated gymnast.
The blend of virtual college football and real-world sporting events like the Olympics provides players with a variety of options to unwind and recharge during their downtime at training camp. This balance between relaxation and focus on football is crucial for players to maintain their physical and mental well-being throughout the intense pre-season preparations.
