The Mahomes family has become the crème de la crème of the NFL world. Patrick Mahomes has dominated the league ever since setting foot in it six years ago. His brother Jackson Mahomes, although a bit controversial at times, is also a popular figure among the fans. Opinions about him are as polarizing as they can get and looking back at an old Tik Tok video of his, the social media star may have just realized why that’s the case.
Fans have criticized many of Jackson’s actions since he shot to prominence in the social media world. Some even go to the lengths of calling the 22-year-old influencer ‘cringe’. He shared an old video of his on Instagram and his message along with it suggests that he realizes that there might be some truth in the relentless, and often unwarranted, trolling.

Jackson Mahomes shared an old video of him dancing on the trampoline with his fans on Instagram. And he had just one question. And looking at it, it would be safe to say that he is looking back at this video, originally shared on Tik Tok, with some regret.
“Why didn’t anyone tell me this is not it lol,” Jackson wrote while sharing the video on Instagram story.
Jackson has faced intense criticism for years due to his antics during the Kansas City Chiefs games and even off the NFL field. Fans criticized him for pouring a bottle of water on some Baltimore Ravens fans during their clash against the Chiefs in the 2021 season. He recently faced backlash after he allegedly assaulted a restaurant owner and a waiter.

All controversies aside, this probably would be the first time that he may have realized that he could do better. But to be fair, though some of the criticism may be valid, the relentless trolling is of help to anybody. Even Jackson’s sister-in-law Brittany Mahomes holds the same view.

Brittany Mahomes’ Jackson defense
Brittany Mahomes is close to her brother-in-law Jackson Mahomes. During a recent Q&A with the fans on Instagram, Patrick Mahomes’ wife defended his younger brother with a message to all the haters. She wants them to walk in his shoes once before criticizing him or just not saying anything.
“They are ignorant,” Brittany said of Jackson’s haters. “He is a human just trying to live his life and find his way and until you walk a day in his shoes (which no one ever will) you have no right to say shit about him. So, it’s best to just shut up,” she added in an Instagram story.
