Patrick Mahomes’ mom shares stories of raising the MVP and his siblingby.
KANSAS CITY, Mo. (WDAF) – As thousands of fans gear up to cheer on their Chiefs, one fan from Texas has been cheering on quarterback Patrick Mahomes for years, even before he ever picked up a football.
Randi Mahomes, Patrick’s mother, is the original Mahomie, and probably the one person Chiefs’ fans should thank for Patrick wearing the red and the gold.
“I knew when it came to sports he was going to be able to reach whatever level he wanted,” she told FOX4’s Kathy Quinn in an exclusive one-on-one interview.
But Randi said football wasn’t his first choice.
“Before his junior year in high school he came to me that summer wanting to quit football, but I just said you’re going to regret it if you quit,” she told him.
Randi said her son has never been a quitter. He is always striving to win and never a showoff. Number 15 has always been a team player except when he occasionally got benched—by mom.
