Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes had a rough October, and it wasn’t just because of missed passes or fumbled plays. Nope, this time it was his Belton, Missouri, home that got the ultimate unwanted visitor treatment—a late-night break-in!
Now, most of us would go off about the audacity of a burglar in front of a microphone, but Patrick, keeping his QB cool, gave just a few words on the topic at a press conference on November 13th. “Obviously, it’s frustrating,” he said. Translation: “Who does this thief think he is, running routes in my house?!”
When asked about the details, like if anyone was home during the heist, Patrick was as tight-lipped as if he were covering a playbook. “It’s something we’ll talk about… at some point,” he offered mysteriously, as if hinting at a future Netflix special.
The break-in happened just after midnight on October 6, according to sources. The estate in question isn’t just your average home—it’s a whopping eight-acre property. You’d think that much land would scare off intruders, but apparently, they were undeterred. The local sheriff’s office was called out within ten minutes, although there was no sign of forced entry. Now, that raises questions: did the burglar bring his own key? Or was he just really, really good at lockpicking? Sherlock Holmes, where are you when we need you?
For now, Patrick’s sticking to his “less is more” approach. We can only imagine what the thief got away with, though we hope they didn’t make off with any of his Super Bowl rings—those are for his hands only!
