Patrick Mahomes and Philadelphia Eagles (Photos via Imagn & Nike)
Nike appeared to take a savage shot at Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes in an ad commemorating the Philadelphia Eagles’ Super Bowl win on Sunday.
Mahomes was mostly ineffective on the night, with fans and analysts alike suggesting he played the worst game of his career as the Eagles had their way with him. Vic Fangio put on a defensive masterpiece that saw the front four constantly pressure the QB, sparing nothing in the backfield as he refrained from blitzing.
The aforementioned sportswear company, which sponsors multiple Philly players, including Jalen Hurts and Saquon Barkley, has since released an ad in which they appear to shade Mahomes.
The clip, which starts off with Barkley dropping a catch against the Atlanta Falcons and scenes from the Eagles’ loss to the Chiefs at Super Bowl 57, also features Kermit the Frog’s “Bein’ Green” song from the first season of Sesame Street.

Patrick Mahomes Is Cool With The Kermit Jokes
Patrick Mahomes is often compared to the green Muppet because of the way he speaks, so it’s easy to see why no one would doubt this Nike ad is throwing shade.
The Chiefs QB also has an endorsement deal with their longtime rivals, Adidas.
Mahomes hasn’t shied away from the comparison and recently leaned into it after being asked for his best Kermit expression by a reporter during Super Bowl week.
“I’m talking right now, that’s it,” he said.
Sure, Nike may have simply been going along with the Eagles’ green theme and the challenges they faced in their return to the top, yet it’s more fun to think otherwise.
