The Mahomes brothers have quite a contrast with each other. On one hand, there is Patrick Mahomes, who led Kansas City Chiefs to their first Super Bowl appearance in 50 years at the Super Bowl LIV win against San Francisco 49ers. And that was not the only stop for the QB, as he led them to their second Super Bowl glory at the historic Super Bowl LVII showdown against Philadelphia Eagles, making an epic comeback with his team for his second Lombardi trophy. And on the other hand, we have Jackson Mahomes, who can’t seem to get out of the controversies in his life. From his NFL sideline antics to legal battles, he finds himself fighting one battle after another.
While Patrick Mahomes may not have a lot of flaws attributed to his skills and his journey, there is certainly one aspect of his life where he wished things could have been different. And it is with his controversial younger brother, Jackson Mahomes.

Patrick Mahomes is undoubtedly one of the best QBs to play in the league. Many even debate that he is walking in the shadows of Tom Brady while making his way to be the next GOAT of the NFL. While other QBs figure out how to make big bucks with the showcase they put on in the league, Mahomes is focused on the holistic development of his team, and surrounding himself with more talents to win more championships than money. Something which Tom Brady was also famous for. But despite his greatness, his brother Jackson Mahomes, on the other hand, could not build a reputation like his elder brother.
A recent video by Mikerophone on YouTube, while talking about the legacy and greatness of the 2x Super Bowl champion, highlighted the fact that Jackson Mahomes is the complete opposite and the only flaw for Mahomes. The video stated, “But the only flaw you could find on him is Jackson Mahomes. And that’s completely out of Patrick’s control. Yes Patrick, your clout destroyed your brother. So I guess you can have that weight on your conscience.”
And this statement might carry some truth to it as well. While Patrick Mahomes is making a name for himself in the NFL, his younger brother somehow always seems to find himself landing in troubled waters.

The controversial Jackson Mahomes life
Unlike the QB, Jackson Mahomes is a social media influencer with over a million followers on TikTok. But his actions have brought widespread criticism from fans throughout the years. The younger Mahomes was criticized by fans after his behavior during a loss to Baltimore Ravens went viral. It was a clip that showed Jackson Mahomes pouring water on Ravens fans after an altercation with them during the match.
Not only this, but he also recently found himself landing in legal trouble after being accused of assaulting a young waiter and also forcibly trying to kiss the 40-year-old owner of the same restaurant. It is a case that has received a lot of media attention, and the court hearing still continues to date.
