Mom Randi Defends Son Patrick Mahomes as Chiefs Dragged Through Mud Due to Harrison Butker, Wanya Morris & Jason Godrick’s Controversies

Patrick Mahomes and the Kansas City Chiefs are having a tumultuous off-season. The team’s been taking hits left and right—from Rashee Rice facing disciplinary action to Harrison Butker catching flak for his contentious speech at Benedictine College, the red and white team can’t catch a break.

Amidst all this Mahomes has stayed mum over the matter so far and it has not gone down well with the fans. In these challenging times, Patrick Mahomes’ mom, Randi, stepped up providing a much-needed shield against the storm.

Chiefs’ kicker Harrison Butker drew the backlash of fans after his controversial commencement speech at Benedictine College in Kansas. He said, “Some of you may go on to lead successful careers in the world, but I would venture to guess that the majority of you are most excited about your marriage and the children you will bring into this world.” He also labelled the Pride Month a “deadly sin”and said men “set the tone of society, and when that is absent, disorder, dysfunction and chaos set in.”

The NFL distanced itself from Chiefs’ kicker Harrison Butker, as vice president Jonathan Beane clarified, “Harrison Butker gave a speech in his personal capacity, his views are not those of the NFL as an organization. The NFL is steadfast in our commitment to inclusion, which only makes our league stronger.”

But fans called out the Chiefs and Mahomes, the team’s leader, for their silence on the matter. Meanwhile, Mama Mahomes took to social media platform ‘X’ to defend her son, Patrick Mahomes, posting, “The only one qualified to throw a stone… didn’t.”

Tavia Hunt also shared her views on the matter. In a post on Instagram she talked about how she has encouraged her daughters chase their dreams but also find a spouse who respects them and that “raising a family together is one of the greatest blessings this world has to offer.” She also asked people to not take Butker’s comments out of context and stressed, “Sound bites overlaid with hateful comments are not what we want to model for our children or others.”

After their Super Bowl success the Chiefs have had a troublesome off season. While NFL has spoken about the Butker incident, will the Chiefs and Patrick Mahomes dive into the debate
