Fans expressed their dissatisfaction with the presence of Jackson Mahomes at the Super Bowl.
Patrick Mahomes’ younger brother has faced criticism from fans for a couple of years now, primarily due to questionable behavior. However, the scrutiny intensified after an incident where he was reportedly caught on a local restaurant’s security cameras allegedly shoving an employee before forcefully kissing the owner on the neck three times, resulting in his arrest.
Following the conclusion of Super Bowl LVIII, a video captured Jason Kelce on the field, exchanging high-fives with the younger Mahomes. While the interaction could have ended there, Jackson proceeded to put his arm around Kelce, continuing the embrace despite Kelce’s apparent discomfort, as Kelce clearly attempted to disengage to greet others.
The awkwardness of this exchange did not go unnoticed.

This incident occurred shortly after Jackson’s attempt to hug Taylor Swift on the field, which resulted in a cold response from Swift as she swiftly moved away to embrace others warmly.
Earlier, at a pre-Super Bowl party, Jackson was filmed attempting to enter Brittany Mahomes’ exclusive section, only to be stopped by venue security, who were unfazed by his familial connection. Brittany’s nonchalant reaction, seen in her shrug and subsequent dancing, earned her praise from many who interpreted it as a sign of her indifference towards Jackson’s presence.
While Patrick Mahomes’ family has long been under public scrutiny, Jackson and Brittany frequently find themselves the targets of criticism. However, Brittany’s apparent lack of concern for Jackson’s presence at the event garnered positive attention amidst the controversy.
