Liberty Check
- Patrick Mahomes Sr. must petition court just to watch his son play football
- Extended probation now includes ankle monitoring and mandatory drug testing before every trip
- DWI conviction and probation violation have turned family tradition into legal battle
Patrick Mahomes Sr. is fighting for permission to watch his superstar son compete this NFL season. The father of Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes filed a motion Friday in Tyler, Texas court, requesting permission to attend seven of his son’s games despite strict probation conditions stemming from a DWI conviction.
The court filing reveals the extensive restrictions Mahomes Sr. now faces. He must submit to urinalysis testing both before and after traveling out of state and notify his supervising officer for every departure from Texas.
The games he’s requesting to attend are in Kansas City, Missouri; Las Vegas, Nevada; and Cincinnati, Ohio. Each trip requires court approval and compliance with testing protocols.
Mahomes Sr. pleaded guilty to driving while intoxicated in 2024 and received five years of probation. But in February 2026, he was arrested for violating probation terms after drinking alcohol, according to Smith County District Attorney Jacob Putman.
That violation added another two years to his probation sentence.
The motion filed by Mahomes Sr. emphasizes his efforts at rehabilitation. He completed 16 weeks of outpatient treatment and 160 hours of community service.
Court documents state that Mahomes Sr. has complied with all current probation conditions. He’s now monitored by an ankle monitor, with compliance verified by a Smith County community supervision officer.
The Chiefs open their season Monday Night Football against the Denver Broncos in Week 1. Patrick Mahomes, the two-time MVP who underwent knee surgery in December to repair torn ligaments, appears on track to start.
“He’s going to keep practicing just like he’s been doing,” Chiefs coach Andy Reid told reporters Wednesday.
“These are more like practice here, a lot of one-versus-one play these next couple of days. That’s a good thing.”
The younger Mahomes worked with the first team throughout training camp despite his injury recovery, though he sat out all preseason games. Whether his father will be in the stands to watch remains in the hands of a Texas judge.
The Constitution must be defended.
