Patrick Mahomes is breaking his silence after the recent break-in at his Belton, MO, estate — and it’s clear he’s not happy.
The Super Bowl champ shared some brief thoughts during a press conference on Wednesday, revealing the emotional toll the incident has had on him and his family.
“It’s disappointing,” Mahomes told reporters when asked about his reaction to the break-in that went down. “I can’t get into too many details because the investigation is still ongoing, but it’s obviously something you don’t want to happen to anybody — and obviously yourself.”
Sources say the burglary was first reported by one of Mahomes’ bodyguards shortly after midnight. On the same night, the star quarterback was spotted celebrating teammate Travis Kelce’s 35th birthday at a local comedy show. While Mahomes didn’t confirm whether he, his pregnant wife Brittany Mahomes, or their two kids were home at the time, he did note that more information may come out later.
“I can’t speak too much about the details of everything with the investigation going on, but I’m sure at some point that will be talked about,” Mahomes added, keeping tight-lipped on whether any valuables were taken.
But the hits didn’t stop there — just two days later, thieves struck Kelce’s mansion in Leawood, KS. The robbers managed to swipe $20,000 in cash and damage a back door. The timing was no coincidence either; the heist took place just 15 minutes after the Chiefs’ home game against the Saints had kicked off.
Kelce, who was surrounded by friends and loved ones, including girlfriend Taylor Swift, during his birthday celebrations, only discovered the break-in after the game when he returned from a private afterparty. The tight end reported the incident to authorities around 1:30 a.m. the following day but has yet to address it publicly.
Law enforcement officials believe these two high-profile burglaries could be connected, possibly tied to a larger organized crime operation spanning both sides of the Kansas and Missouri border. The FBI has joined forces with local police departments to get to the bottom of this alarming situation.
As the investigation continues, both Mahomes and Kelce are focusing on their safety and moving forward.
