About this listen

Chiefs owner Clark Hunt integrates his Christian faith into the team culture, leading quarterback Patrick Mahomes to become increasingly vocal about his belief. We question if Mahomes’ public piety is genuine or a savvy form of career compliance, especially given the financial insecurity of non-guaranteed NFL contracts. This coercive atmosphere, previously linked to Christian nationalist rhetoric (like Harrison Butker’s speech), highlights the dangers of blending theology with corporate power. We criticize the hypocrisy of wealthy team owners emphasizing prayer while ignoring global suffering.
