Gracie Hunt has got Jackson Mahomes’ back.
Hunt — the daughter of Chiefs owner Clark Hunt — defended Patrick Mahomes’ brother when asked whether there is a misconception about him following criticism over his social media posts.

“I do think that we live in a culture that’s often quick to criticize and slow to forgive. But I think we need to be one that’s quick to forgive and slow to criticize.”

In September 2021, Jackson was filmed pouring a bottle of water over a bunch of Ravens fans that were taunting him and Matthews following the Chiefs’ 36-35 loss in Baltimore.
Mahomes defended his brother and wife in a press conference and said that the whole situation wasn’t captured on video.
