From all accounts Mahomes could have chosen either a career in baseball or a career in football and would have done well either way.
Let's not dismiss what Biles has accomplished (and the spectre of having done it during the Nassar years) and give her what is due her. She is one of the greatest...if not the greatest in her sport.
But thinking that she is a better athlete than Patrick Mahomes is silly.

I think you are unclear what an athlete is. There are probably a dozen sports that she would excel at if she put her energy into that. Gymnastics is probably the best test of athleticism of any sport.
I still put Mahomes ahead of her though because of the age thing.
