In their infinite wisdom, the Las Vegas Raiders, who had to watch the Kansas City Chiefs win a Super Bowl at Allegiant Stadium earlier this year, have already given Patrick Mahomes fodder for the upcoming season.
During training camp this week, Raiders players passed around a Kermit the Frog puppet, complete with a Mahomes jersey and wig, to tease the Chiefs quarterback for his voice, which some have compared to that of the amphibious muppet.
As a starter in Kansas City, Mahomes has earned a 10-2 record against Las Vegas and lifted the Chiefs to eight consecutive AFC West championships.

Clearly, the Raiders’ players needed a rest from their preparations for yet another rebuild, where journeyman quarterback Gardner Minshew II and second-year passer Aidan O’Connell are expected to compete to lead the floundering franchise under head coach Antonio Pierce, who led Las Vegas to an 8-9 record last season.
