Patrick Mahomes Sr. is once again facing legal issues.
Last year, Mahomes Sr. was sentenced to five years’ probation when he was arrested on Feb 3, 2024, in Texas, after being pulled over for drinking and driving.
The arrest came days before his son was set to play in the Super Bowl, something he told police officers while getting arrested.
“Can I say one thing?” Mahomes Sr. began. “My son is getting ready to play in the f—ing Super Bowl.”
