Patrick Mahomes Coors Light Commercial is Pretty Clever

Patrick Mahomes is crushing the offseason ad game.

Those tricky advertising agencies know how to skate around the do’s and don’ts of what athletes can and can’t promote. This was a clever one, where they got Kansas City Chiefs star QB Patrick Mahomes to promote his favorite beer Coors Light, without really promoting it.

I’ve often said, “brick walls are only obstacles to those who are creatively blind.” Turns out NFL players aren’t allowed to endorse beer. This is brilliant. https://t.co/f4IjdhS8sM

This is genius. NFL players can’t endorse beer and he’s not actually endorsing beer in this commercial…. https://t.co/0CUZbyg03K

NFL players aren’t allowed to advertise beer. This is extremely clever marketing by Coors! https://t.co/ixnLHjx0VV

NFL prohibits active players from their likeness being used to promote beers, spirits and so on.

But this is one work around on that little rule.

NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell probably didn’t see this one coming…
