"We're going to make sure we bring not 1, not 2, not 3, not 4, but 5-plus rings to Kansas City!"
K.C. Chiefs star Chris Jones did his best LeBron James impression Monday ... channeling the NBA superstar by guaranteeing multiple future championships for his team -- and it was all bold as hell!
The defensive lineman -- who just signed a MASSIVE 4-year, $85 MILLION extension to stay in K.C. -- was asked on 610 Sports Radio what his message would have been if he had been able to speak to fans at the Chiefs' Super Bowl parade in February.
That's when Jones said he would've gone all LeBron on the crowd ... and promised more parades in the future!!
"This is only the beginning," Jones said of what his speech would have entailed. "Be prepared to have another parade, and another parade, and another parade!"
Of course, 5-plus rings is unlikely ... Tom Brady's the only dude in history with that many -- and it took him 20 YEARS to get.
But, if anyone was going to do it in the near future ... it'd be the Chiefs.
They just locked up quarterback Patrick Mahomes for at least the next decade ... and they're returning nearly every other significant player from last season's Super Bowl roster.
In fact, when we spoke with star wideout Tyreek Hill about the squad ... he told us he was FIRED UP over the offense's potential in 2020.
So, 5-plus rings? Maybe don't bet against Mahomes just yet ...

Mahomes inked a record-breaking 10-year, $503 MILLION contract extension earlier this month ... and Hill believes that could be the catalyst for a lengthy dynasty in K.C.
In fact, the 2-time All-Pro wideout tells us with Mahomes locked in and star defensive tackle Chris Jones inking a new deal ... he sees multiple rings on the horizon for the Chiefs.
"I'm proud of just the Chiefs in general for getting all these deals done, man," Hill says. "'Cause they understand right now is our time, like this is our window to be great, for us to build that dynasty and I'm just happy to be along with them."
As for who's buying meals going forward now that he, Jones and Pat have signed huge contracts ... Hill says that honor will go to Mahomes from here on out.
Sorry, kid.
By the way, Tyreek is doing some really cool things this offseason while preparing to go back to back with K.C. ... he tells us he's creating a clothing brand that he hopes can help raise money and awareness in the fight for social justice.

Remember when a random liquor store worker beat out every national reporter in breaking the insane Patrick Mahomes deal??
The Kansas City Chiefs decided to team up with the infamous tweeter for another go-round on Thursday ... to officially announce a new contract with star defensive tackle Chris Jones!!
WELL, before any major outlet had a scoop on the Mahomes news, Katie Camlin of Plaza Liquor in KC sent out the following -- "A front office employee for the Chiefs came in and bought 6 bottles of Dom Perignon."
"Said there's a big signing today. He said it's not Chris Jones, so my guess is a Mahomes deal."
We all know by now that Katie was absolutely right in her prediction ... with Mahomes inking a record-breaking, 10-year deal worth up to $503 MILLION.
As a way to pay homage to the epic moment, the Chiefs worked with Camlin for a re-enactment for the Jones deal -- a 4-year, $85 million extension.

NFL's Tyrann Mathieu Covers Funeral Costs For 9-Year-Old ... Killed in N.O. Shooting

NFL star Tyrann Mathieu has paid for the funeral costs of a 9-year-old boy who was killed in a horrific shooting in New Orleans, TMZ Sports has learned.
Devante Bryant was shot in the head on July 13th in a mysterious attack on a bunch of kids. Two other teenagers -- 13 and 16 -- were also shot, but they survived.
Cops are investigating but so far, they don't seem to have any idea about why someone would commit this horrible act.
When Tyrann -- who's from Louisiana -- found out about the killing, he wanted to help the family and felt paying for the funeral costs would allow them to focus on grieving for their son.
"Young black children should not be dying from gun violence," the Kansas City Chiefs superstar tells TMZ Sports.
"Devante didn’t even have a chance to live his life before it was tragically taken away from him."
"My goal is to help stop the violence and help my community to show and empower children from my community that there is another way, one child at a time."
"I wanted to help the Bryant family because I am from the 7th Ward and I felt that pain. I have a 7-year-old son that lives in New Orleans and I couldn’t imagine something happening to him at that age. He is only 2 years younger than Devante."
"My heart goes out to the Bryant and Howard Family."
If you have any information about the shooting -- please reach out to the New Orleans PD.
RIP.

Tyreek Hill says he ain't embarrassed one bit about being put on a poster by a 15-year-old at his camp last weekend ... in fact, he's praising the kid -- and telling TMZ Sports he's hoping for a rematch one day in the NFL!!!
"Shouts out to that kid, man," the Chiefs superstar says. "Keep that same energy. I'm proud of him."
If you missed it ... rising H.S. sophomore Tyreeq-Styles Obichere made the catch of a lifetime against Hill during a rep at the NFL receiver's youth camp in Texas last Saturday.
Waiting for your permission to load the Instagram Media.
The play was INSANE ... Tyreeq jumped OVER Tyreek and hauled in the pass with ONE HAND!!!
Hill tells us he was shocked by the rep ... and called it, "Odell Beckham 2.0. It was great."
And, when we told the NFL All-Pro that Obichere is gunning to do it again against him in the NFL in about a decade ... Hill was all for it!!!
"Hopefully I'll still be playing," Hill said, before firing off a warning ... "And if I do, if I do, and if I am still playing, I'll still be the fastest."
Hill says his advice for Obichere going forward is simple, "Don't let one moment define you."
By the way, if you think Tyreek's conifdence is shaken by the play ... it's DEFINITELY not -- he told us, "Look, guess what, on Sunday night, on Sundays and Mondays and Thursdays, I know what I do!"
"I know what I do!"

12:37 PM PT -- TMZ Sports has obtained a picture of Post Malone's now-infamous Mahomes/Kelce/Chiefs tattoo ... and it's pretty glorious.
Check out the artwork ... it's clear as day, Mahomes and Kelce's signatures above and below a Kansas City Chiefs logo.
We're told the ink is located square on Malone's forearm.
Why does Post Malone have tattoos of Patrick Mahomes and Travis Kelce on his body?!
Because the NFL stars kicked his ass in an epic backstage beer pong match -- and the loser had to get tats!!
It all went down after the Chiefs beat the Niners in the Super Bowl -- Mahomes and teammate Kelce were able to score some VIP tickets to Post's February concert in Kansas City.
But, Mahomes told GQ before the show went on ... he and Kelce were invited backstage for a little beer pong action with Post.
What happened next is pretty legendary ... Mahomes said he and Kelce WENT OFF -- and Post Malone was PISSED!!!
Mahomes said after about 14 or 15 straight victories ... Post decided to up the ante on the games -- and brought out a piece of paper for Mahomes and Kelce to sign.
The deal? If Post couldn't win, he'd get the Chiefs stars' autographs inked on his body.
Of course, Kelce and Mahomes didn't lose -- with Mahomes saying his tight end was "unconscious" good on the table! So, when Post got the "L," he agreed to get the ink done after the show!!
Mahomes says he tried to talk Post out of the tats ... saying, "Dude, you do not actually have to get a tattoo of our autographs."
Didn't work.
And, if you're wondering ... no, Post hasn't revealed WHERE the new tats went on his body.

Shark Tank's Barbara Corcoran Warns Patrick Mahomes ... You're a Financial Target!

Exclusive

"He's gonna be a target. He's got a target on his back. Wait and see."
That's "Shark Tank" star Barbara Corcoran warning Patrick Mahomes that with giant fortune comes giant scammers trying to take your money!
But, if you know anything about Barbara, you know she's a gangster when it comes to finance ... and she's dishing out some sage advice for the QB so he can STAY RICH for the rest of his life.
So, what should the KC Chiefs QB do with the $500 mil he's expected to make over the next 12 years?
"First of all, it's not $500 million," Barbara says ... "Remember, he has an Uncle named Sam. He's gonna have to pay him $250 million so he really only has $250 million. Bear that in mind."
Corcoran explains, "The first thing he should do is put it in the bank. Not do a thing! I know because when I sold my business, every creep came out of the woodwork with a $10,000 problem. Everybody is after your money and you can't trust anybody."
Barbara says it took her at least a year to realize how to turn people down effectively -- and the key is to hire a "bad guy" to tell people "no."
"The most important thing is before he buys that big house and a big jet ... he's gotta figure out how much money he needs to live on."
"He's a kid but he's gonna live a lot of years! So for every $25 million he puts away, he's going to get a $1 million income for the rest of his life"
"He should figure out, I need $1 million? I need 2 million? I need 5 million? And put that money aside. That's what he's gotta do."
Corcoran says Patrick should spend some time with her "Shark Tank" pal Alex Rodriguez -- who has become a major real estate investor.
That's saying something considering A-Rod reportedly made more than $441 million in MLB contract money!
There's more ... Corcoran also has a business strategy for Patrick -- and it's pretty damn smart! Watch the video and if you have the money, you might wanna take her advice!!
She also offered this final warning to the 24-year-old NFL superstar ...
"Let me tell you something, the more money you make, the more creeps you attract. The more people dressed in fancy suits, and not some fancy suit, friends or family -- all come out and are after your money."
Congrats to Patrick -- but listen to B.C. and be careful out there!

Patrick Mahomes No Jet-Skiing Or Hoops For Me All Part Of New Contract!!!

2:50 PM PT -- Patrick Mahomes might be worth HALF A BILLION dollars now ... but can he enjoy a little jet ski action with that cash??
HELL NO ... so says the QB himself, who told 610 Sports Radio on Tuesday he believes the super-fun water sport is now prohibited in his new contract.
Mahomes also says he's pretty sure he's not allowed to play basketball, baseball or "pretty much every physical activity you could possibly do."
"I’ll probably be sticking with football and video games for now," Mahomes said.
Good call, Pat.
Of course, the contract language ain't exactly a new concept in the NFL ... tons of guys have been banned from dangerous sports by new deals -- Matt Stafford famously told us the Lions barred him from riding a motorcycle when he got a new contract years ago.
Is a baseball career that ended 17 years ago the reason Patrick Mahomes is now set to be a K.C. Chief for life???
Seems the superstar QB is saying exactly that ... 'cause Mahomes told reporters Tuesday his dad's experience in the MLB helped him ink a monster 10-year, $503-MILLION contract extension.
Mahomes said his dad, Pat Mahomes Sr., and his godfather, former MLB pitcher LaTroy Hawkins, both told him signing a long-term, financially-secure deal is a better route than a short-term one.
"They didn't sign that long-term contract, but they saw players who did," Mahomes said of Hawkins and his dad, who played in the MLB from 1992-2003.
"They saw players who went about it and how they kind of got that long-term security and were able to go out there and play free knowing they had the security they always wanted."
Most NFL players prefer shorter-term deals ... but Mahomes says after conversations with his dad and godfather, he believes the contract that'll keep him in K.C. through 2031 is the best call.
"Definitely was something I was able to talk to them about and get a lot of information from them," Mahomes said.
Of course, Mahomes also said the stability of the Chiefs' organization -- from ownership down to head coach Andy Reid -- also made signing a long deal and easy call.
"No offense," Mahomes told reporters, "but you can't do this with every organization."
As for what Mahomes is gonna do with all that dough?? The dude's planning to help out those in need.
"Obviously, in the time that we're in right now, there's so much opportunity to go out there and try to help the world become the best place that it can possibly be."
"I feel like having this security, this trust, within the organization and obviously the financial help, I'll be able to do that. And not only in the Kansas City community, where I hope to impact as much as I can as quickly as I can, but hopefully around the world."

The QB will make $503 MILLION if he sees it to the end, according to Steinberg ... making the contract the largest in sports history.
Congrats to @PatrickMahomes on agreeing to terms on a 10-year extension worth $503 Million. He gets $477M in guarantee mechanisms and ability to have outs if guarantee mechanisms aren’t exercised. No trade clause. First half billion dollar player in sports history. History made. pic.twitter.com/beSGN4jyej

1:03 PM PT -- The numbers are in ... and Mahomes is slated to make $450 MILLION on the extension, according to Schefter.
The ESPN reporter says $140 million of it is guaranteed in the case of injury ... but there are NO ties on the deal to salary cap percentage, as was initially believed.
Chiefs fans, rejoice ... Patrick Mahomes ain't going anywhere for a LOONG time -- the superstar QB reportedly just agreed to a historic 10-year contract extension with K.C.!!!
ESPN's Adam Schefter reports the 24-year-old and the team reached a deal Monday ... although dollar figures have yet to be discussed.
But, the big question ... will this be the NFL's first $400 MILLION DEAL?!?!?!
The proposed contract would lock him into K.C. through the 2031 NFL season.
This is obviously a big deal ... the extension could be one of the most eye-popping in sports history -- with many believing Mahomes could command right around $40 MILLION per year on the deal.
Of course, Pat's deserving of every penny ... the dude has already established himself as one of the NFL's all-time greats, already winning an MVP award and a Super Bowl in just 2 seasons as a starter.
Mahomes' numbers in those years are insane ... in just 30 starts since taking over the QB reigns from Alex Smith, he's logged over 9,000 passing yards and 76 TDs to just 17 interceptions.
In fact, Mahomes has been so good ... Chiefs legend Willie Roaf told TMZ Sports previously he's Tom Brady-esque; while former K.C. head coach Dick Vermeil has told us Pat's got G.O.A.T. potential.

Patrick Mahomes says he knows Drew Brees ain't a racist ... telling reporters Wednesday the Saints QB will show the world he's truly "a good person" in the wake of backlash over his anti-kneeling comments.
"Obviously, his statement missed the point and missed what was going on in the world today," Mahomes said, "and took away attention from the movement that was going on and the peaceful protesting that was going on."
"But I think you see with his actions afterward, and I believe with his actions moving forward, you will see the true person that he is."
The Chiefs superstar says he's had a longstanding relationship with Drew, given their Texas roots ... and Mahomes claims he's never had a bad experience with the future Hall of Famer.
In fact, Pat even said, "he’s always showed me the utmost respect."
So, after Drew apologized for his insensitive national anthem comments last week ... Pat says it wasn't hard to forgive the guy.
"I've known Drew for a pretty long time just being from Texas," Mahomes said, "and I know that he’s a good person and he has a good heart."
Brees has issued three separate statements since he was publicly grilled for his comments ... vowing to help in the fight for racial justice in America.
Drew's wife also issued a statement of her own, saying, "To all of our friends and anyone we hurt we will do better ... We are sorry."
By the way, Mahomes also spoke about his role in that powerful video with other NFL stars that ultimately led to Roger Goodell's famous statement ... saying he felt it was his duty to participate in the clip.
"I’m blessed to have this platform, why not use it?" Mahomes said.
Pat added he appreciated the Commish's response to their video ... but said, "We want to make sure that it leads to action and it leads to different things that we can go out in the community and do to make the world a better place."

KC Chiefs running back Damien Williams -- who scored TWO 4th-quarter TDs in the Super Bowl -- was robbed at a fancy rental home in L.A., TMZ Sports has learned.
Williams was not hurt in the incident -- but the suspects made off with roughly $1,000 in cash and now cops are on the hunt.
Here's what we know ... the 28-year-old had JUST checked in to a pricey L.A. home on Saturday night when 3 intruders broke into the property through a back door.
To seal Super Bowl…

DAMIEN WILLIAMS HOUSE CALL
(via @NFL)pic.twitter.com/DKamMLaUPF
We're told the men surrounded Williams and his crew -- and even the suspects did not brandish a weapon, it was clear they wanted cash ... or else.
Williams and his guests complied. Our law enforcement sources tell us the suspects got around $1,000 in cash and then fled the scene.
Cops were called but so far, they have not located the men. We're told the LAPD is investigating and looking for possible surveillance footage. The suspects have been described as 3 African-American men.
A rep for Williams tells TMZ Sports ... the NFL player is doing okay.
Williams was a stud for the Chiefs in 2019 -- but REALLY broke out during the playoffs.
During Super Bowl LIV, he rushed for 104 yards and a TD against the SF 49ers -- and also caught 4 passes for 29 yards and a TD!
The receiving TD with 1:12 left in the game basically sealed the victory for KC.
Some people feel he could have been named Super Bowl MVP.
Unclear why Williams was in L.A. -- but he was born and raised in San Diego which is only a 3-hour drive away.

Bashaud Breeland Arrest Cop Pulled Gun & Taser On Chiefs Player ... 'Marijuana Enthusiast'

Exclusive Details

7:23 AM PT -- 4/28 -- TMZ Sports has obtained the arrest report ... and it's shocking.
Cops say the arresting officer used a taser and a firearm to take Breeland into custody as the NFL player allegedly "attempted to flee the scene."
Here's the deal ... a York County Sheriff's deputy claims he saw Breeland and two other men smoking marijuana at a gas station at around 11 AM on Tuesday.
The cop says the men tried to hide the weed when he arrived -- with Breeland repeatedly attempting to leave the scene.
The officer says he initially pulled out a taser and began to issue commands to Breeland to stop resisting -- but Breeland would not comply. So the officer, "drew his issued firearm and issued more lawful commands to Bashaud Breeland who was concealing his hand."
The officer says citizens in the area were begging Breeland to "stop resisting" and ultimately the officer was able to put him in handcuffs.
When backup arrived, officers searched Breeland's car and claim they found a "large marijuana blunt" along with 3.2 grams of weed in the driver door.
Cops say they also found open bottles of beer and tequila in the car.
There's more ... cops say Breeland gave deputies permission to look through his cell phone -- and they allegedly found "several communications about drug transactions."
"Bashaud Breeland had several messages to dealers placing orders of large quantities of marijuana in bags like what was found in his driver's door."
According to the arrest report, Breeland told cops he is a "marijuana enthusiast" who simply likes to smoke ... the insinuation is that he denies being a drug dealer.
Cops also say Breeland "had a large amount of cash on him as well."
Breeland was eventually transported to a nearby police station where he was booked for multiple charges including resisting arrest and possession of weed.
He was released late Tuesday night on $2,362 bond.
8:01 AM PT -- Breeland shared his side of things in a since-deleted tweet late Tuesday night ... claiming it was a set-up.
"I really was at a gas pump got approach by two guys police pulled up they throw something my car as police pulled up which the cop saw," Breeland said.
"I was the one detained wit charges that really shouldn’t be charged."
Kansas City Chiefs star Bashaud Breeland -- who had an interception in Super Bowl LIV -- was just busted for weed possession, open container and resisting arrest, officials confirm.
28-year-old Breeland -- fresh off inking a new, $4.5 million deal to stay with the Chiefs this off-season -- was booked around 1:30 PM on Tuesday in Charlotte, NC.
According to the York County Sheriff's Office, Breeland is facing multiple charges -- resisting arrest, open alcohol container in motor vehicle, alcohol in motor vehicle with seal broken, possession of 28g or less of marijuana, and driving without a license.
The South Carolina native was booked into York County Jail, where he remains in custody, according to records.
Breeland was a 4th-round pick to the Washington Redskins after 3 seasons with Clemson ... playing 4 seasons in D.C. before a brief stint with the Green Bay Packers.
Breeland had a team-high 7 tackles and picked off Jimmy Garoppolo in the Super Bowl ... helping Kansas City win its first Super Bowl since 1969.
We've reached out to the Chiefs for comment ... so far, no word back.

Chiefs 1st-round pick Clyde Edwards-Helaire says he's ECSTATIC to play with Patrick Mahomes in Kansas City ... telling TMZ Sports he thinks the QB is a Hall of Famer!
We spoke with the LSU superstar just days after he was selected with the 32nd overall pick in the NFL draft ... and it didn't take long for him to tell us he's PUMPED over the idea of sharing a backfield with Mahomes.
In fact, Clyde says when he found out Patrick had advised Chiefs brass to pick him before their draft last week ... he became even more enamored with the QB.
"It made me feel like this was the right place to be," Edwards-Helaire says. "This is where God wanted me to be."
"And, ultimately. Man, MVP quarterback, soon to be Hall of Famer -- he's going to be a Hall of Famer, so for him to send my name in and want me to play with him, it made me feel a little special."
Clyde -- who's expected to have a huge role in the Chiefs' offense catching passes from Mahomes in 2020 -- added, "I'm still kind of amazed by the entire situation."
We also asked Clyde what he's spending his first NFL paycheck on ... and he tells us he's looking to buy land -- and his reasoning for why is pretty amazing!!
