But now, it’s his mother who’s making headlines for her selfless gesture. Randi Mahomes recently lost her mother Debbie Bates and the family is still reeling under the loss. But Randi is making sure her mother’s legacy lives on.

Patrick has already made a name for himself in the NFL by turning into one of the best quarterbacks in the league. And all that was possible because he got the opportunity to hone his skills with the right education. Randi wants to make sure that those in need can rise as her son did.
