Patrick Mahomes’ dad, Patrick Mahomes Sr., asked the court for permission to attend his son’s NFL games while still on probation, Us Weekly can exclusively report.
Patrick Sr., 55, requested permission to attend the games Patrick Jr’s plays in Kansas City. He listed several games, mostly on the weekends, during the NFL season that he hopes to see.
The date of the games ranged from September 12 to December 25, where Kansas City is set to play Denver on Christmas.
The paperwork said Patrick Sr. would make the court aware if he wished to travel to any away games. The filed status report noted, “He understands he must submit to urinalysis upon returning from traveling to each game.”
In a separate status report, Patrick Sr. was approved to travel to Kansas in August to hang with Patrick and his family “as they are releasing a documentary about Patrick.”
Patrick Sr. has to check in with the court due to him being on probation from a 2024 arrest for driving while intoxicated for the third time or more. TMZ reported Patrick Sr. was previously arrested on a DWI charge in 2019. The report said Patrick Sr. was ordered to serve 40 days behind bars.
Court docs revealed Patrick Sr. pleaded guilty to a felony driving while intoxicated charge in August 2024. He was sentenced to five years on probation and had to complete 160 hours of community service. In addition, Patrick Sr. was instructed to enroll in a DWI class and had his license suspended for a period of time. The judge noted that if Patrick Sr. violated the terms of the deal he risks being thrown in jail for up to 10 years.
A lawyer for the NFL star’s father said at the time, “Our client is now living a sober life, and we believe that the steps he has taken to better his life have helped us negotiate a plea recommendation for probation.”
Back in February, the District Attorney and other court officials asked that Patrick Sr. be ordered to have an additional portable alcohol monitoring device. They asked the court to have Patrick Sr. wear a SCRAM bracelet, which monitors whether an individual has any alcohol in their system.
In August, Patrick Jr., 30, spoke about his father’s 2024 arrest days before his son was to play in the Super Bowl. He said the incident “hurt” him.
“I think just knowing that it hurt me, woke him up to know that, like, you can’t keep doing the same things,” Patrick Jr. said.
Patrick Sr. also addressed the arrest and its effects on his son.
“It kind of hit home before the Super Bowl last year, when I got in trouble. For him to have to answer questions about me, you know, was probably the most embarrassing thing that I’ve ever been through in my life,” he revealed. “I made a vow that he would never have to deal with anything because of drinking because of me.”
