The holiday season is especially merry and bright for NFL offensive linemen since it is customary that their quarterbacks turn into Santa Claus this time of year. Kansas City Chiefs’ Patrick Mahomes filled red Yeti coolers with luxury presents for his O-line.

It was a fun day at the Chiefs’ facility for the offensive lineman when they received a Rolex, Normatec recovery boots, Lucchese boots, and Oakleys.
Cincinnati Bengals quarterback Joe Burrow gifted his offensive lineman authentic Japanese Katana swords. Each sword is unique and has its own story from certain towns or battles.
Burrow put all the swords in a room and let each lineman pick theirs out.
“Joe does a great job at buying gifts that are extremely meaningful,” left tackle Orlando Brown said. “The fact that he bought me a sword, it’s the most ancient form of respect.”
San Francisco 49ers quarterback Brock Purdy gifted five Toyota Sequoias and five Toyota Tundras to his offensive lineman. The total for the brand-new cars is approximately $650,000. Meanwhile, Purdy is only making $900,000 this season.
However, Purdy has a partnership with Toyota. In February, the company named former NFL quarterback Eli Manning and Purdy as national partners of Toyota.
“Prior to the 2023 season, Purdy signed a deal to appear in Toyota’s regional advertising efforts across television and social media for the Northern California Toyota Dealers,” the statement read. “This deal will advance Purdy’s partnership with Toyota to a national level. Purdy led all NFL players in fan votes for the 2024 Pro Bowl as he helped lead his team to the top seed in the NFC playoffs before guiding the 49ers to Super Bowl LVIII. The second-year quarterback drives a 2024 Toyota Sequoia SUV.”
While the Chiefs are a shoe-in for the playoffs and the 49ers have less than a 1 percent chance to reach the postseason, the Bengals are the team with an uncertain destiny.
There are a few scenarios that need to transpire in order for Cincinnati to make the playoffs. The Bengals win their last three games versus the Cleveland Browns, Denver Broncos, and Kansas City Chiefs. The Broncos lose their last two games against the Bengals and Chiefs, and the Indianapolis Colts lose once and the Miami Dolphins lose once, then the Bengals are in the playoffs.
