Patrick Mahomes’ brother, Jackson Mahomes, was catching a bunch of criticism again on Sunday.
The TikToker was doing his usual routine of posting some dances at the game when fans noticed he was doing it directly on the new memorial for former Washington safety Sean Taylor.
After realizing what he had done, Jackson Mahomes offered an apology.

In response to the Jackson Mahomes hate, former NFL receiver Torrey Smith deferred the blame onto the WFT for allowing Patrick Mahomes’ family to hang out right there.
It’s clearly not boxed off. This isn’t as big of a deal as folks are making it out to be. Blame the folks that didn’t fence off the spot or put the number in a better location where fans weren’t allowed. #RIPSEANTAYLOR https://t.co/WZVoPgLkrc

Patrick Mahomes would go on to “like” the message sent from the former NFL star.
While it seems like Jackson Mahomes and the entire family get just as much publicity as Patrick Mahomes these days, I gotta side with Torrey Smith here.
The WFT seems to have rushed the whole Sean Taylor ceremony amid their email controversy to gain some good publicity. And the whole thing was done poorly.
Fans should not have been allowed in the area, and there’s no way Jackson Mahomes knew that he was doing something that could be perceived as disrespect.
