Kansas City Chiefs WR goes viral for prophetic preseason Super Bowl prediction with a mentalist

PM NICOLE HARDMAN

 

Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver Mecole Hardman’s preseason Super Bowl prediction is going viral on social media after the opponent he predicted in the presence of a psychic was confirmed on Sunday.

Mecole Hardman’s incredible prediction

Hardman was a member of the New York Jets at the time, who invited famed mentalist Oz Pearlman for a segment while filming the training camp show, Hard Knocks. Known as Oz the Mentalist, Pearlman was invited to the ESPYs in 2023 thanks to his work with famous athletes and teams, including Mike Tyson, University of Michigan, the Dallas Cowboys and Seattle Seahawks.

“You’ve got a crystal ball in your hand. You see the future,” Oz prompted him in the video. “Tell us, who do you see the Jets playing in this year’s Super Bowl?”  “49ers,” Hardman replied, before Pearlman revealed a matching prediction of a 31-21 Jets win over the Niners to complete the magic trick.

His return to the Chiefs could make it come true

Although he predicted that it would be the Jets facing the 49ers in the big game, Hardman ended up on the roster of their real opponent, the Chiefs, which makes his vision even more remarkable.

The 25-year-old receiver was a member of two Super Bowl teams in Kansas City before being signed by New York in the offseason, when he made his prediction. Hardman only caught one pass in five games before being traded back to the Chiefs in October.  He didn’t exactly go out on a limb by predicting the loaded San Francisco team to represent the NFC, and he didn’t know he would be on the Chiefs. But if the score of the Super Bowl ends 31-21, Mecole and Oz are going to have some serious questions to answer.
