Im not saying his life is perfect or stress free. I'm just saying compared to the average American his life is pretty sweet.

A CEO can make tens of million dollars. Would anyone say their life isn't stressful? Guys like Patrick mahomes work really really hard and particularly in football it's enduring pain, living in hotels, tons of press obligations, tons of media and sponsorship obligations. And in today's environment the public pressures to do a good job and as we've seen from those who don't, the major stress when you don't do your job. It's not always a sweet life. It's why even the most successful athletes like tiger and Mj have had complete mental breakdowns
Several elite qbs had a setback season after having their first kid. And again, this is on top of just getting that new contract and sponsorships that come with it, and battling back from surgery. Nobody said he can't handle it. But understandably he has more on his mind than usual right now.
