Raiders troll Patrick Mahomes, Chiefs with Kermit doll — before trainer fires back

The Raiders are poking the bear — or frog — early this year.
A Las Vegas football fan brought a Kermit the Frog doll from “The Muppets” to Raiders training camp in Costa Mesa, California, and a video that went viral on social media Thursday showed defensive back Trey Taylor holding the item — which also donned a Patrick Mahomes Chiefs jersey.
Mahomes’ voice has long been compared to Kermit’s, with the three-time Super Bowl champion even getting in on the fun when asked to do an impression before this year’s big game.
“I’m talking right now, that’s it,” Mahomes said when he was asked to mimic Kermit.
On Thursday, Taylor help up the doll, much to the delight of fans behind the cameras, moving the mouth of the doll and saying: “I’m Patrick,” in a high-pitched voice.

Former Las Vegas defensive end Yannick Ngakoue led his team to the Chiefs’ logo at midfield at Arrowhead Stadium before a December 2021 game, giving a rousing speech.
