Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes is one of the most polarizing athletes in the entire world. Everyone who plays the quarterback position wants to be like him and act like him.
There is one player in college football right now who has the same exact mimic as him: Dylan Raiola of the Nebraska Cornhuskers. He is a star freshman for Nebraska, who is trying to get the football program back to winning ways.
Kansas City Chiefs Quarterback Patrick Mahomes Praises Nebraska Cornhuskers Quarterback Dylan Raiola
There was one time this offseason when the Las Vegas Raiders used a kermit frog as Patrick Mahomes in practice and Mahomes did not take too kindly to that at all. However, he had a different tone when Raiola did some of the same things he did. Mahomes told the media:
“It’s cool, honestly. I was that guy, grew up watching players. I loved A-Rod, played SS, would try to make plays just like him. It helped me become the athlete that I am. It’s just telling me I’m getting a little old.”
The resemblance between Dylan Raiola and Patrick Mahomes is uncanny. 😂

Mahomes has already won three Super Bowls and other MVP awards in his NFL career already. It is a good thing to see other quarterbacks like Raiola looking up to him.
Nebraska a Dark Horse Team To Make the College Football Playoff
Because of head coach Matt Rhule. they are on the right track to make the college football playoff this season. They are potentially a dark horse team to make it, but they do not have an easy schedule. They will be facing #3 Ohio State Buckeyes on the road later this season.
The Nebraska Cornhuskers don’t need freshman quarterback Dylan Raiola to be Patrick Mahomes, but that would be an excellent thing for the football program. A lot of quarterbacks when coming out of college in today’s game want to be like Mahomes.
He is now the golden standard for quarterbacks in the NFL. This will not be the last time that Raiola will be like Mahomes with his pregame routine and other things he wants to do on the field. What is also scary is that he exactly looks like him as well.
