Jackson Mahomes has shared a joyous family photo amid fallout about the way he celebrated the Kansas City Chiefs’ Super Bowl win.
The 22-year-old brother of NFL star quarterback Patrick Mahomes, who was named MVP in the 38-35 win over Philadelphia Eagles to claim the Vince Lombardi Trophy, has been mercilessly trolled after he joined the Chiefs in their victory parade and partied on the field immediately following the game.
The negative vibes after his reaction to his brother’s role in the Super Bowl victory haven’t stopped him from continuing to celebrate that moment.

Father Pat and mom Randi are also in the family lineup, which seems to have been taken on the field after the Super Bowl win, with Patrick still in his Chiefs gear.
In the days after the photo was taken, Jackson has taken some heat for, what some are claiming, is him trying to share the limelight of his brother’s success.
He shared on his Instagram and TikTok pages a video of himself joining the happiness on stage of the Chiefs victory parade in Kansas City, captioning the clip: “Patrick and I just vibing at the parade!”
One person wrote: “Can Jackson get off the dam stage? He is not connected to the football team. Always in Patrick’s space. It not about you Jackson. Enough is enough.”
Despite the negativity, Jackson took to Instagram to pay thanks for those who helped make it a memorable couple of weeks, as well as sharing love for his mom in the process.
