The NFL Draft is an exciting time for football fans, and this year’s event was no exception. But one attendee, in particular, caught people’s attention: Jackson Mahomes, the younger brother of Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes. Despite being under investigation for assault, Jackson made a rare public appearance at the 2023 NFL Draft to support his brother and show off the Lombardi Trophy.

After the assault news, Jackson has kept a low profile on social media, but he did share a picture of himself with Patrick at the draft. Although Patrick has not made any comments on the matter, he seems to be supporting his brother through the legal difficulties.
Brother of Patrick Mahomes is still under investigation
Jackson’s attendance at the draft is one of his few public appearances since he was caught forcibly kissing a woman, the case is still under investigation. He posted a family portrait of Patrick, his wife Brittany Matthews, and their two children on Instagram, but he has not been very active on the platform.
Previously, Jackson had also attended an MLB game by himself and shared his experience on Instagram. Some Chiefs fans see him as a distraction to Patrick and would prefer if he stayed off social media.
Although Jackson did not create any issues during the regular season, he has been making headlines since the Super Bowl victory of Patrick. Despite the negative attention, Patrick seems to remain loyal to his brother.
While Jackson Mahomes’ legal issues continue to be a topic of discussion, his appearance at the 2023 NFL Draft alongside his family showed his support for his brother and the Kansas City Chiefs. It remains to be seen whether Jackson will remain in the public eye or keep a low profile as the investigation progresses, but for now, his presence at the draft serves as a reminder of the Mahomes brothers’ bond and the Chiefs’ recent success on the field.
