Speaking with host Nate Burleson, Mahomes explained that at first, his teammates "stayed away" for the athlete to do his own thing.
"And then he started bringing Taylor around and you realize how cool of a person she was and she is. So for us - I mean, it was a couple of jokes here and there in the beginning - but now, she's just part of Chiefs Kingdom and she's part of the team," he added. (via Page Six)
