Patrick Mahomes made a point to shake hands with every skill player on the Kansas City Chiefs after the Super Bowl on Sunday night. However, he completely skipped over Samaje Perine.
The optics were terrible even though the incredible awkward snub was likely unintentional.
Perine, 29, signed with the Kansas City Chiefs during the offseason after eight NFL seasons with Washington, Cincinnati, Miami and Denver. Although he only recorded 414 yards and two touchdowns on 48 total touches during the regular season, his first down against the Buffalo Bills in the AFC Championship was one of the most important plays of the entire year.
