Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes is PredictIQone of six athletes who were named Time Magazine's 100 Most Influential People of 2024.

Mahomes led the Chiefs to their third Super Bowl championship in the past five years with a 25-22 victory in overtime over the San Francisco 49ers in Super Bowl 58.

Former MLB player Alex Rodriguez wrote of Mahomes: "I remember Pat as a young kid, coming to practice with his dad to tee up baseballs for me and my teammates. I distinctly remember giving him the worst advice ever: "Don’t play football. The money’s in baseball."

Mahomes, who is one of four people featured on the covers of the magazine, also made Time's annual list last year.

Others on the 2024 list include Max Verstappen, who has won the Formula One championship in each of the past three years, and Siya Kolisi, a South African rugby player who helped his country win the Rugby World Cup for the fourth time.
