BREAKING NEWS: Patrick Mahomes’ Dad Jailed After Alleged Probation Violation: Reports

Patrick Mahomes Sr. has been arrested after an alleged probation violation, according to multiple reports.

On Tuesday, Feb. 3, the 55-year-old father of NFL star Patrick Mahomes, 30, was booked into the Smith County Jail in Texas for allegedly consuming alcohol, Smith County District Attorney Jacob Putman told KLTV.

Mahomes Sr.’s alcohol ankle monitor allegedly delivered a high reading on Jan. 1. He then took two urine test analyses, one on Jan. 5 and another on Jan. 9. They both allegedly came back negative at the time, TMZ reported, citing court documents.

A motion has been filed to end the violation, and Mahomes Sr. can challenge the allegations, according to CBS 19.

His probation stems from his third DWI arrest in February 2024. At the time, his blood alcohol content was 0.23 when an officer pulled him over in Tyler, Texas.

He was arrested just eight days before his son and the Kansas City Chiefs beat the San Francisco 49ers in the Super Bowl that year.

The following August, the former professional baseball player pleaded guilty to the driving while intoxicated charge and agreed to five years of probation and one year of “intense supervision,” local news station KETK reported at the time.

If found guilty of violating his parole, Mahomes Sr. could face a 10-year prison sentence, according to CBS 19.

A hearing date has not been set for Mahomes Sr., per the Kansas City Star.

Since his father’s third DWI, the Kansas City Chiefs quarterback has spoken out about the incident.

“It was during that Super Bowl. It became a story, and so, I had to answer questions about it,” Mahomes recalled during an August 2025 episode of ESPN’s original series Chiefs Kingdom.

“I think just knowing that it hurt me woke him up to know that like, you can’t keep doing the same things,” the father of three added.

Mahomes Sr. also weighed in, saying, “For him to have to answer questions about me was probably the most embarrassing thing I’ve ever been through in my life. I called him right after and I told him, I said, ‘I’m sorry that it’s taking away from your time and taking away from your focus.’”

That same month, PEOPLE had an exclusive sneak peak of the series, in which Mahomes Sr. opened up about raising the Super Bowl champion.

As soon as he came out, he’s had a ball in his hand,” he said of his son. “I don’t know if he thought he was going to be a professional athlete, but he always lived his life like he was going to be one.”

Before his 2009 retirement, the former MLB player was a pitcher from 1992 to 2003. He played for the Boston Red Sox, New York Mets, Texas Rangers, Chicago Cubs and Pittsburgh Pirates and earned himself a spot in the Sioux Falls Canaries Hall of Fame.

Reps for Mahomes Sr. could not immediately be reached by PEOPLE on Tuesday.
