Watch now:
Tiki and Tierney: Patrick Mahomes confidently talks about Drew Brees’ statement
(1:58)
The CDC has recommended that everyone wear masks in public to protect themselves against the coronavirus, and some cities and states have required it. Not everyone is used to wearing face covers, so one company is giving Kansas City residents additional motivation to mask themselves.
A company called Raygun is selling masks that say, “Help keep Patrick Mahomes safe: wear a mask.”
It goes without saying that Kansas City Chiefs fans would want to keep the defending Super Bowl MVP and former NFL MVP safe.
Raygun wrote on Twitter:
“KC, do you remember how happy you were after the Super Bowl? Well now imagine that Mahomes has Covid and with decreased lung capacity it could not be repeated. The masks are not just for YOU, they are also for Mahomes! Do your part! “
The masks are already quite popular in the area and cost $ 15 with 35 percent of the proceeds going to the community food banks.
“We started selling them on (June 23) and since then they have been one of our best selling masks. We have sold just over 300 in our first week,” Raygun tweeted.
Monday is the first day that Kansas City demands that they cover their faces in public after cases in the city have increased.
Right now, the NFL plans to start the season on time, with the Chiefs kicking off the regular season at home against the Houston Texans.
If fans are allowed in games, it will probably be at lower capacity.
