Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes has undeniable talent on the football field. In 2018, the same year he was named starter, he won the NFL’s awards for the most valuable player and offensive player of the year.
During the 2019-2020 season, he led his team to victory at Super Bowl LIV and returned to the Super Bowl the following year, despite losing to Tom Brady’s Tampa Bay Buccaneers. Continuously breaking boundaries, Patrick made history when he signed a 10-year contract with the Chiefs worth $503 million, making it the largest contract in sports history.
The NFL star’s play has put him in the spotlight, but his family has gained notoriety for other reasons. While Patrick’s younger brother, Jackson Mahomes, is known for his TikTok dances on the field, he’s also gained a reputation for a few antics that led his famous brother to defend his actions. In addition, Patrick’s wife, Brittany Mahomes, might be his biggest fan, but she’s also known for her social media feuds.
All these controversies were rumored to have left Patrick wishing his family would take a step back and no longer attend games. According to a source cited in a since-deleted tweet from Rich Ohrnberger of Fox Sports Radio (via Complex), “[Patrick] believes that Jackson and Brittany have become a distraction, and their sideline antics are bad for his brand.” The quarterback swiftly denied this claim, however, when he tweeted in February 2022, “Y’all just be making stuff up these days.” However, there’s no denying that Patrick Mahomes’ family members have stirred the pot a few times.
