NFL season is right around the corner. Patrick Mahomes and the Kansas City Chiefs are ready to get back on the field to get the bad taste out of their mouths from losing the Super Bowl last season to the Philadelphia Eagles.

The NFL regular season currently consists of 17 games, and at this point, it seems like it's only a matter of time before the schedule is expanded to 18 games. NFL commissioner Roger Goodell has been very open about the fact that he would like to see the league implement an 18-game schedule at some point in the near future.

Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes is the face of the NFL. He's not the face of the NFL's push for an inevitable 18th regular-season game. In an interview with CNBC Sport, Mahomes addressed the topic of another game that counts.
