Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes was revealed Monday night as the best player in the NFL as voted on by his peers in NFL Network's annual countdown of the league's top 100 players.
This is the second time that Mahomes — who is coming off his second Super Bowl win in four seasons — has been named the NFL's top player.
Minnesota Vikings receiver Justin Jefferson, Philadelphia Eagles quarterback Jalen Hurts, San Francisco 49ers defensive end Nick Bosa and Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce rounded out the top five.
Mahomes, the MVP of Super Bowl 57, won his second career Most Valuable Player award following the 2022 season and recently was honored as the Best NFL Player and Top Male Athlete at the 2023 ESPY Awards. During the 2022 season, Mahomes threw for a career-high 5,250 yards and led the NFL with 41 touchdown passes. He has thrown for 4,000 or more yards in each of the five seasons he has been the Chiefs' starting quarterback.
Tom Brady was the No. 1-rated player last year, his final season in the NFL before retiring "for good" in February. Mahomes took top honors in 2021, while Lamar Jackson was No. 1 in 2020.
