Get up close and personal with three NFL quarterbacks featured in Netflix's series Quarterback, its first-ever partnership with the league.
. Among other things, it offers unprecedented access to three of the top players in the league: Patrick Mahomes, Kirk Cousins, and Marcus Mariota. And, based on the appeal of this kind of original content to sports fans, I’d also argue thatunderscores how Netflix’s ambition to be your 1-stop-shop replacement for TV clearly remains undiminished.
Minnesota Vikings QB Cousins, meanwhile, led what’s arguably the greatest comeback in the history of the league, while Mariota joined the Atlanta Falcons for a wild first season.: For a closer look at each of the Netflix series’ three featured players, we’ll start with the Kansas City Chiefs’ tough and intensely competitive quarterback who’s regarded as arguably the most talented NFL passer of all time.
After his collegiate career at Texas Tech, Mahomes was a backup during his rookie year and went on to win the MVP award in 2018 during his first season as a starter. He’d also been named to the Pro Bowl during all five of his seasons as a starter. Among other things,viewers will also see a different side to Mahomes — as, for example, he plays through a serious ankle injury and he also envisions an AFC Championship rematch against Joe Burrow and the Cincinnati Bengals.
The demands of life in the NFL that Mariota is confronted with are also juxtaposed with his responsibilities at home, such as him being forced to decide whether to remain with the team or head home to be with his newborn for those important first days in a child’s life.
“Kirk provided incredible access to his sessions with his sports psychologist,” Manning explained about Cousins, a devoted family man who also takes as much time as possible to interact with fans. “The greatest investment a quarterback can make is into his body. If he takes care of himself, that allows him to play more years. I have great appreciation for extra, outside-the-box modalities. That was not available early on in my career. I love that Kirk does all that.
