NFL;Patrick Mahomes’ Mom Shares Touching Post After Family Tragedy

Patrick Mahomes dealt with the loss of his grandfather shortly after the Kansas City Chiefs’ loss in Super Bowl LIX. This week, Mahomes’ mother provided a touching family update.

Patrick Mahomes and his family have experienced some highs and lows early in 2025. Both on and off the field, the year has been a roller coaster of emotions for the Kansas City Chiefs’ star quarterback.

The year started with Mahomes and his wife, Brittany, welcoming their third child, Golden Raye. After the Mahomes family grew in size, Patrick returned to the gridiron to continue what he has done for much of his NFL career: dominate the AFC.

Mahomes led the Chiefs to their seventh straight AFC Championship Game and helped eke out a 32-29 win over the Buffalo Bills to take the team to its third straight Super Bowl.

Amid that journey, Mahomes and his family were dealing with the imminent passing of his grandfather. He held on through Super Bowl Sunday when the Chiefs took a considerable defeat.

Following his death, Mahomes’ mother Randi had this to say in an Instagram post.

“Hard to find the words of holding my father’s hand as he goes to Heaven. I know he’s in a better place. I love you daddy. Well done, good and faithful servant,” Randi Mahomes said on her Instagram post.

“I know that it has meant a lot to him,” Randi said. “And I think he’s hanging on because he wants to see his grandson do an amazing thing or just let him play. I mean, he must be such a proud grandpa, so proud.”

The family has had a couple weeks of mourning and time for everyone, including Patrick to take their focus away from football. This week, Randi shared a touching post to her social media once again with her and her three kids together.

Sports often dehumanizes athletes at the professional level, especially in the case of Mahomes who has a microscope on his every move.

Fortunately, these circumstances come at a time when his calendar is pretty open and football does not have to be his first priority. For now, the NFL superstar will certainly enjoy this time with his family.
