Nick Wright: Patrick Mahomes will ‘be the standard’ for greatness in pro sports

Fox Sports 1 on-air personality Nick Wright has made a name for himself as one of the vanguards of Kansas City Chiefs commentary.
As a Kansas City native, Wright has been steeped in Chiefs football culture for years, and isn’t shy about promoting the importance of what the team has accomplished in recent years.
During a segment on First Things First this week, Wright shared his thoughts on Patrick Mahomes’ dominance, pointing out that few professional athletes have ever found as much success as the three-time Super Bowl MVP in the first years of their career.
Check out Wright’s take below:
Is Mahomes more comparable to Jordan or Brady?
“There is no comp for Patrick Mahomes. … He is going to be the standard to which guys are held. He is not held to anyone’s standard. He is Babe Ruth, he is Wayne Gretzky, he is Tiger Woods.” — @getnickwright pic.twitter.com/uLaC42gQM1

Mahomes’ reign as the NFL’s most successful active quarterback doesn’t seem to be destined to end anytime soon.
Given that he is still in his 20s, it isn’t out of the question that he could add more Super Bowl titles to his resume by the time he decides to hang up his cleats for good.
