UCF defensive end Trace O’Hara is not Patrick Mahomes. But his likeness, especially from a distance, is uncanny. Or, at the very least, very close.

O’Hara, a rising sophomore for the Knights, knows that he bears some resemblance to Mahomes and took advantage of his look-a-like in a recent viral TikTok video. It’s hilarious.
Mahomes is currently in Las Vegas for the NFL Pro Bowl. As is O’Hara.
Thus, on Saturday, O’Hara did his best Mahomes impression. Donning the signature sunglasses and Chiefs red shirt, he rolled up to Pro Bowl practice as if he was the Kansas City quarterback.
In the video, O’Hara walks onto the field and the crowd erupts. They thought that it was actually Mahomes, so O’Hara gave them a wave, which only furthered the frenzy.
In the background, his friend laughs about how they really think it’s him.
Smartly, O’Hara did not get too close to the fans so not to give himself away. Instead, he stood at a distance and hyped up the crowd. He even found some Chiefs fans in the stands to show some love.
Meanwhile, everybody on the field was visibly confused as to what was going on. They seemed to be able to tell that it wasn’t Mahomes, but they also didn’t seem entirely convinced. Either way, once they caught on to O’Hara, they couldn’t help but laugh.
At some point during the practice, O’Hara even got to take a photo with Travis Kelce and the real Mahomes. The entire thing was so well executed.
