    Michael Vick is a former football player who was a quarterback in the NFL. He was named to three pro bowls while leading the team on two playoff runs, one division title, and an NFC Championship Game appearance.

    Michael Vick’s career came to a halt in 2007 after he pleaded guilty to his involvement in a dog fighting ring and spent 21 months in federal prison. He came home and went back to what he loved to do: play football.

    Michael Vick won plenty of awards playing football. I got a chance to see him at an event and get some pictures.  He is retired now and living life. Glad he is doing good and is in a better place in life. He still is a sports icon.

    Patrick Mahomes is a football quarterback for the Kansas City Chiefs. Did you know Mahomes played baseball? He became the only quarterback in history to throw for 5000 yards and 50 passing touchdowns in the same season.

    Patrick Mahomes is definitely a sports icon. He has won so many awards. Some of my favorite quotes by him:

    “Every experience good or bad, you have to learn from.”

    “Not a lot of people see that when you’re growing up.”

    “I just try to learn from every mistake that I make so that I never make them again.”

    He has inspired so many athletes all over the world. He is definitely a sports icon. What is one of your special moments of Patrick Mahomes? Make sure to follow me @Cece.atl.
