Athletes across multiple sports are getting in the holiday spirit, with many gifting their teammates lavish items. These players drop thousands, sometimes even ten or hundreds of thousands, to show their appreciation of the other players in their locker room.
In the NFL, it has been a tradition for quarterbacks to give their offensive linemen gifts as a thank you for protecting them all season. With the holidays upon us, multiple quarterbacks have presented gifts to their teammates.
Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes’ season may be over due to a torn ACL, but that didn’t stop him from going all out for his o-line. He gave them all a Hublot watch, Beats Studio Pro headphones, an indoor golf simulator, Oakley AI sunglasses, a suitcase and an e-bike.
The o-line were all smiles receiving the luxury items.
Buffalo Bills quarterback Josh Allen carried over the team motto “everybody eats” into his gifts. He gave them all a grill and some meat, specifically a quarter of a cow, to put on the grill.
The Detroit Lions offensive linemen were clearly on the “nice” list this year. Quarterback Jared Goff had golf carts waiting for his lineman, who were as giddy as little kids on Christmas, testing out their new wheels right away.
Golf carts were clearly a popular gift this year and Dallas Mavericks’ Kyrie Irving got the memo. The team hopped in the carts right away, with some even testing the suspension with some off-roading. Irving told his team they looked great in the custom carts and added that he would ship them to each of their homes.
The team then drove the carts around town, telling people to come to their games.
Los Angeles Lakers’ Luka Doncic set his squad up with e-bikes. He not only bought his teammates the bikes, but purchased over 100 total for the staff as well.
WNBA star Caitlin Clark gave shoes to the Butler men’s basketball team, where her boyfriend, Connor McCaffrey, is an assistant coach.
