The arrest of Patrick Mahomes Sr. has come at the most unfavorable timing for Mahomes Jr. His arrest happened just weeks before his son’s fourth Super Bowl appearance. However, this is not the first time that the former MLB player has faced legal issues. Records from Smith County show that he has been arrested for a total of six times for DWI. He was arrested twice in 2012, twice in 2018, twice in 2019 and now in 2024 again. However, this time around Chael Sonnen has come forward and has asked for help in his recent X post. He posted, “My sense is he is a very genuine man. Let’s pull for him to get help over punishment. I get that there can be both, but I’d like to see grace.”

Mahomes Sr, has been released on bail of $ 10,000 bond on Sunday. However, he did receive a 40-day jail sentence in 2018 and served on weekends, starting from February 2019 till February 2020. The Mahomes family has been facing a lot of trouble lately after his brother was cleared of three felony charges recently. Considering all this, the former UFC star has come out and shown a great gesture by asking for help on his X account. But that’s not all ‘The Bad Guy’ has been up to lately.

Sonnen is also active on YouTube and makes some of the best predictions for upcoming fights. This time round he has come up with a unique fight for UFC 300.
