Mahomes had no option but to answer the question about his brother’s currently lawsuit and he answered it in the most diplomatic way possible. “Honestly, it’s kind of a personal thing that I just kind of gotta keep to myself,” Patrick Mahomes stated.
“I think that’s a process everyone has to navigate in life. Obviously, I’m on a bigger stage, but at the same time, it’s your family. But you have to come in here and do a job, and that’s what I try to do every day.”
Jackson Mahomes was arrested in the month of February and since then the family has been under increased scrutiny. Jackson himself had a decent following on Twitter and was very active with his upload schedule. However, he has been inactive since his arrest as his family looks navigate his problems.
