Who Is Patrick Mahomes Sr.? What To Know About The Controversial Former Athlete

It seems like Patrick Mahomes Sr. relates with his son, Patrick Mahomes’ struggles all too well because he was an athlete in his youth. He was a Major League Baseball pitcher for a decade, starting in 1992. He lent his talents to teams like the Boston Red Sox, Texas Rangers, Minnesota Twins, Pittsburg Pirates, and Chicago Cubs. His career also took him across the globe as he pitched for Japan’s Nippon Professional Baseball for two years. Pat Sr. has also earned himself a spot in the Sioux Falls Canaries Hall of Fame.

As you can imagine, Patrick Jr. had some big shoes to fill during his teenage years, so he took up basketball, football, and baseball. When Pat Sr. spoke to the Los Angeles Times in 2023, he shared that he told his son to drop football in his high school sophomore year because he believed the future NFL star’s energy would be better spent perfecting his already stellar baseball skills. Thankfully, Patrick followed through with his football career plans with gentle nudges from his mother, Randi Martin.

Nonetheless, Patrick told Men’s Health in 2021 that his father inspires him to bring his A-game while he still can. “I got to see [my dad] battle and grind to try to get back there,” Mahomes explained. “You never know if it’s going to be like this for the rest of your career. So I try to win as much as possible now and do whatever I can to win multiple Super Bowls.”
