Chiefs star receiver Mecole Hardman had a productive 24 hours.

After capping off the iconic Super Bowl with the winning touchdown, he probably went to Las Vegas to celebrate with his teammates like he does when he wins a big game.

Hardman then tweeted just before 10 a.m. PT that he was still awake from the night before.

“I haven't slept yet. The adrenaline is still flowing. ”

I haven't slept yet 😴 The adrenaline is still pumping 😂

Yes, definitely!

Hardman, who scored the game-winning score and caught Mahomes' 52-yard bomb early on, certainly earned the right to the party.

The bond between Mahomes and Hardman is deep!

Of the countless stories that stem from this fascinating Super Bowl, the story of Mecole Hardman is my favorite.

Hardman spent the first four years of his career in Kansas City after being selected by the Chiefs in the second round of the 2019 NFL Draft. And before the 2023-24 season, Hardman signed with the New York Jets in an effort to add him to Aaron Rodgers' toy box.

However, after Rodgers suffered a torn Achilles tendon in the first game, Hardman was relegated to the bench and barely managed to make catches. one pass In five games with the team. In October, the Jets sent Hardman to return He was traded to the Chiefs in exchange for a simple lower pick. (Related article: Mahomes gives glory to God immediately after Super Bowl win)

Hardman used sparingly after returning to Kansas City, catching only 14 balls in six games with the team. But he did it when it mattered most, and that's what really matters.

His vigil is well-deserved and a testament to American ideals that are often overlooked. In this country, if you work hard, you can reach the highest level. And once you reach that peak, you might as well enjoy it. Because you never know when that high will come back again.

勝利にはハードワークと献身が必要ですが、それは祝われるに値します。

それでは乾杯、ハードマンさん。 一日をお楽しみください。 そして、お祝いが終わったら、研究室に戻り、来年再び実験を始める準備をしましょう。 なぜなら、ヤギのトム・ブレイディが言うように、最高のリングは…次のリングだからです。
