Recently Patrick Mahomes’ younger brother Jackson caught the attention of netizens after his uncomfortable Sunday Night encounter with a Ravens fan. The second game week of the NFL season produced an engaging clash between the Kansas City Chiefs and the Baltimore Ravens.
However, there is only one winner and in that game, it was the Ravens. Kansas City, though being in good shape, failed just by one point and that made Ravens fans go wild. One of them turned out to the quarterbacks’ younger brother, Jackson.

Patrick Mahomes on the viral video
The unruly behavior of the fan frustrated the 21-year-old TikTok star so much that he poured water on him. Although it seemed like that is exactly what the fan wanted him to do, as he then started yelling, “Let’s go! Let’s go!”

Later, when Patrick was asked about the matter after the Chiefs’ practice on Wednesday, he replied, “Yeah, I mean, obviously it’s something that we don’t want to necessarily do. There were things said to him, and Brittany, that you don’t see kind of on the clip. But, I mean, he’s been good at it, at not trying to respond to that stuff. He takes a lot, and he’s usually pretty good at it, and he’ll learn from it and just try to stay away from those people as best he can.” (H/T Yahoo Sports)

Jackson might face actions
The water pouring incident went viral the very next day on social media; denounced by many and supported by some. Although the family members of the athletes should not physically retaliate when jeered by fans, the inappropriate behavior of the Ravens’ fan is also unsupportable.

There are talks circulating over his brother facing some legal actions because of his spontaneous gesture. But Patrick Mahomes believes his brother handled the situation well and that his brother has been dealing with such remarks for a long time now.
