JUST IN: Do you know Patrick Mahomes’ NFL future is uncertain which has cause rift between Randi Mahomes and Andy Reid. Find out Details…

Let’s face it: Patrick Mahomes and Andy Reid are Kansas City’s dynamic duo.

They’ve steered the Chiefs to four Super Bowl showdowns and brought home the Lombardi trophy thrice.

Yet, even in this perfect storm of football genius, there was a time when Randi Mahomes, Patrick’s own mother, had a bone to pick with Reid’s play-calling.

In a candid chat on The Mom Game Podcast with Julie Dobbs and Emily Jones on June 21, 2024, Randi Mahomes peeled back the curtain on her son’s sports journey.

She revealed a tale of a young athlete who dabbled in various sports – football just one of the rotating flavors of his athletic calendar.

Basketball, baseball, and even moments of considering quitting football altogether painted the early tapestry of Mahomes’ career.

Randi recalled her early skepticism about Reid’s strategy: “Even the first couple years with the Chiefs, I would say I don’t think you’re supposed to do that, like scramble around, running around….and he was like coach Reid [said] it works, do it.

I’m like okay, but I don’t think you’re supposed to do it but okay.”

This motherly concern wasn’t without foundation.

Patrick’s high school years were a whirlwind of sports, and his commitment to football was uncertain.

During a pivotal sophomore summer, he even mulled over quitting because the quarterback position didn’t come naturally to him.

But Randi, the rebel from her own high school days, pushed him to stick it out.

“I said if you quit, you’re going to be bored in the stands,” she recalled, pushing him toward the path of perseverance.
