Patrick Mahomes continues to star on the gridiron for the Kansas City Chiefs, but fans remain concerned over his family.

The Kansas City Chiefs quarterback had to prepare to play the Atlanta Falcons while his family was dealing with sad circumstances.

Mahomes’ mother, Randi, recently revealed on social media that his grandfather is in the hospital, suffering from an undisclosed condition.

Randi went on Instagram story and wrote: “This is how I fight my battles. If you are seeing this, take a moment, and PRAY for my dad now.”

Randi also posted on X to share her father’s hospitalization but did not disclose what the issue was.

“Prayer warriors, please pray for my daddy,” she posted on X.

“He is in the hospital and is not well… his name is Randy.”

Fans sent their prayers:


With his grandfather on his mind, Patrick Mahomes went out to Mercedes-Benz Stadium and threw for 217 yards, including scoring throws to Rashee Rice and JuJu Smith-Schuster.

Patrick Mahomes Also Dealing With Jail Sentence of Father

Patrick Mahomes has issues going on throughout his family.

Aside from his sick grandfather, the Chiefs quarterback has to deal with the fact that his father will be behind bars for ten days.

Patrick Mahomes Sr. will be jailed after being convicted of a DWI charge. He was arrested just days before his son won Super Bowl LVIII.

The ex-MLB star was found to have a blood alcohol content of 0.23 during a traffic stop.

This is not his first rodeo, which is why he will also serve five years’ probation whilst Smith County Court also suspended his driver’s license for a year and required the installation of a breathalyzer ignition device to ensure he can’t move his vehicle under the influence again.

If Patrick Mahomes Sr. fails to comply, then the sentence could be extended to 10 years in prison.

Everyone Thinks The Know Which NFL Team Bill Belichick Will Be Coaching Next, And It’s Not The Dallas Cowboys

Football fans on social media think they know which team Bill Belichick will coach next, and it’s not the Dallas Cowboys.

Many fans have linked Bill Belichick to the Cowboys during their slow start, and understandably so. A big-market team like Dallas makes perfect sense for the greatest head coach of all time, and current Cowboys HC Mike McCarthy is in his contract year and unlikely to be retained if the team doesn’t embark on a deep postseason run.

But football fans are predicting that Belichick won’t be coaching America’s Team next. Rather, they believe he will eventually replace Doug Pederson as head coach of the Jacksonville Jaguars.

A flood of tweets called for the Jaguars to hire Belichick during the team’s embarrassing loss to the Buffalo Bills on “Monday Night Football.”

 

After parting ways with the New England Patriots in January, Belichick became the biggest name available in the head coaching hiring cycle. Surprisingly, the Atlanta Falcons were the only team that interviewed the six-time Super Bowl-winning head coach.

The Falcons hired former Los Angeles Rams defensive coordinator Raheem Morris, and the other teams with HC vacancies passed over Belichick. Unless he’s hired by a team mid-season, 2024 will mark the first year without Belchick employed in the NFL since 1974.

Bill Belichick Is The Perfect Candidate For Jaguars

The Jaguars have too much talent to be 0-3, and to be humiliated by the Bills like this on prime time. Clearly, Doug Pederson isn’t the solution to this team’s never-ending search for a competent long-term head coach.

Belichick is the most decorated head coach in NFL history and would surely be enticed by the chance to take over a team with Jacksonville’s talent. He could do a lot worse than a core of Trevor Lawrence, Christian Kirk, Travis Etienne Jr., Brian Thomas Jr., Josh Hines-Allen and Travon Walker.

VIDEOS: Caitlin Clark Suffered A Nasty Black Eye During Her Playoff Debut After Taking Vicious Cheap Shot From Rival Player Who Openly Mocked Her Earlier In The Season

Caitlin Clark’s first taste of the WNBA playoffs was quite similar to her regular season debut for the Indiana Fever, as they both started with a loss to the Connecticut Sun.

The Fever are back in the playoffs for the first time since 2016 but will have a lot to do by Wednesday if they are to leave a mark.

Clark didn’t enjoy a positive night on the court as she was poked in the eye less than two minutes after tipoff, with Sun guard DiJonai Carrington poking her in the eye. Carrington openly mocked the rookie in a previous matchup, suggesting she flopped. She later took to social media to joke about it, much to the disgust of Fever fans.

You can see the incident in the clip below:

There was no foul called on the play. Clark went to the bench for a brief moment after getting hit in the eye but didn’t leave the game because of it.

Fans didn’t think the hit was inadvertent.

“If Dijonai hadn’t spouted nastiness towards Fever fans and CC all season, I’d say accidental. But her track record with CC leads me to believe it was intentional,” one wrote.

“She pointed her fingers almost straight down. That s**t was intentional,” another said.

Caitlin Clark Refused To Blame Carrington’s Poke For Her Shooting Slump

Clark would go on to have a poor night, shooting just 23.5 percent from the field to score 11 points, adding eight assists and four rebounds. However, she told reporters she didn’t think it affected her.

“Obviously, she got me pretty good in the eye,” she said, per the New York Post. “I don’t think it affected me. I got good shots, they didn’t go down. It’s a tough time for that to happen. Had three wide open in first half that I usually make. It didn’t feel good when it happened but I don’t think it affected me.”

The two sides are scheduled to play their second game of the series this Wednesday, with the third set for Friday.
