""Just back and forth, back and forth during the game," Wilson said this week. "I knew he was going to be great then. I think it's pretty cool to watch his success he's had and all the things he's done extremely well and his family and everything else.""
""I think his consistency with head coach Andy Reid. He's one of the all-time greats," said Wilson, who is 2-4 against Mahomes. "I think when you have that level of consistency, head coach to player, that means a lot, too. He's got great players around him. Obviously, Travis Kelce is an all-time great tight end. He's special in what he does . . . I think he's a clutch player. He's done some really big things in clutch moments.""
Russell Wilson and Patrick Mahomes first met on Sunday Night Football in 2018, when Wilson's Seahawks beat Kansas City 38-31 and both quarterbacks threw three touchdowns with no interceptions. Mahomes was in his first season as a starter and earned early admiration from Wilson. The two faced each other again with the Giants and Chiefs both seeking their first wins after 0-2 starts, and Wilson making his MetLife Stadium debut in his 14th season. Mahomes turned 30 and holds two MVPs, three Super Bowl rings and five AFC championships. Mahomes serves as a reference point for career trajectory and quarterback development, and Wilson praised Mahomes' consistency with coach Andy Reid and the elite supporting cast including Travis Kelce.
