NFL fans are praying for Patrick Mahomes and his family following some heartbreaking news.

Debbie Bates Martin, the grandmother of the Kansas City Chiefs’ star quarterback, passed away last Wednesday following unspecified health battles at the age of 72. Debbie was the mother of Patrick’s mom, Randi Mahomes.

Teresa Jane, a close friend of Randi’s, announced the sad news in a Facebook post. On Monday evening, Randi sent out this emotional message on Twitter:

Football fans offered a series of condolences to the Mahomes family on Twitter.

My condolences instead of family wish you all the best God bless you the Mahomes family

Martin appeared on several news stories throughout Mahomes’ first five years as the Chiefs’ starting quarterback. Ahead of Kansas City’s 2019 Divisional Round matchup against the Indianapolis Colts, Martin was interviewed by KETK NBC in East Texas.

“I can’t believe it’s all happening. He’s only 23 years old, and Kansas City’s had him a year, and he’s just great up there…He hasn’t changed and he’ll always be Patrick,” Martin told the media outlet.

Mahomes, who won the regular season MVP award that year, led the Chiefs to a 31-13 victory over the Colts in the Divisional Round. That sent Kansas City to their first of five straight (and counting) AFC Championship Game appearances. The Chiefs lost the 2018 AFC title game to the New England Patriots but have rallied to win three of the last four conference championships, as well as two Super Bowls.

Martin’s obituary states that she is survived by husband Randy, their children, her four sisters, 13 grandchildren and seven great-grandchildren. Martin’s funeral was held Monday at the Rader Funeral Home in Henderson, Texas.

Our condolences are with the family and friends of Martin during this difficult time.

NFL Fans Are Praying For Brittany Mahomes Following Heartbreaking Family Announcement

Having been together since high school, Patrick and Brittany Mahomes are parents to a son and a daughter.

Even though their life appears glamorous on the outside, the couple nonetheless faces the same problems that ordinary parents have when their children are ill.

The Kansas City Current co-owner posted a photo of her 3-year-old daughter Sterling Skye on her Instagram Stories this week with the message, “Day 4 of sickness for my baby boo. Some stomach virus that won’t get the heck out of here.”

In the picture she shared, Sterling could be seen with her eyes closed as she rested on her mother as Brittany wrapped her arm around her eldest child.

Brittany also added a sad and crying emoji to the picture.

Social media quickly sent prayers to her family as well as the child:

Sterling’s unlucky stomach virus struck more than two months after the NFL family celebrated her historic third birthday with an exciting party two days earlier on February 20.

Fortunately, Bronze, Sterling’s younger brother, who is one year old, appeared to be unaffected by the illness, as Brittany posted a cute photo of the young guy less than a day ago, cuddling up on the couch and gripping a tiny toy putter.

Later, Brittany posted another photo of the mother-daughter pair swimming in a pool in the follow-up story, which showed Sterling’s speedy recovery.

“Who says a dip in the pool can’t fix it,” the mother of two wrote on the photo. “Sis randomly just said she wanted to go swimming so we are feeling better.”

It would seem improbable that Brittany Mahomes would be the boss of a professional women’s soccer club. She is well-known in the NFL as the spouse of quarterback Patrick Mahomes of the Kansas City Chiefs, or perhaps as Taylor Swift’s new closest friend.

Having launched the Kansas City Current with Chris and Angie Long, Brittany now shares ownership with Patrick, via Wikipedia.
