Patrick Mahomes<\/strong><\/a> doesn\u2019t appear to be a fan of Kermit the Frog \u2014 at least when he\u2019s being dressed up as the quarterback.<\/p>\n

Mahomes, 28, broke his silence on Friday, July 26, over the Las Vegas Raiders mocking his voice, which some have compared to the Muppet, by playing with a Kermit doll wearing his Kansas City Chiefs jersey.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s still early in the year. Stuff like that happens,\u201d Mahomes told reporters <\/a>when asked about the Raiders\u2019 joke. \u201cIt\u2019ll get handled when it gets handled.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\t\t\tAs Patrick Mahomes makes headlines for his accomplishments on the field, his family often raises eyebrows for off-the-field antics. The Kansas City Chiefs quarterback\u2019s support system includes his father, Pat Mahomes, his mother, Randi Martin, brother Jackson Mahomes and wife Brittany Mahomes. The couple share daughter Sterling and son Bronze, whom they welcomed in February [\u2026]\t\t<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

The NFL athlete, who has won three Super Bowl Championships<\/a>, brushed off the incident<\/a>, explaining that not many people sent the video to him. \u201cEverybody kinda just lets me play. They know how I am,\u201d Mahomes said. \u201cThey don\u2019t need to send me anything to keep me motivated.\u201d<\/p>\n

On Thursday, July 25, the Raiders made headlines when a video surfaced<\/a> from their training camp. In the clip, rookie safety Trey Taylor<\/strong> put a Kermit puppet on his hand and said, \u201cI\u2019m a bitch,\u201d while pretending to be Mahomes. His teammates can be heard laughing in the background.<\/p>\n

The doll, which was brought by a fan, was wearing Mahomes\u2019 Chiefs jersey and had a wig to resemble his curly hair.<\/p>\n

\n\t\t\tFlag on the play. From Tom Brady\u2019s Deflategate to Colin Kaepernick\u2019s national anthem protests, the NFL has been at the center of several controversies through the years. In 2016, Kaepernick sparked debates among both fans and fellow players when he didn\u2019t stand for the national anthem before taking the field with the San Francisco 49ers. [\u2026]\t\t<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\u201cThe Raiders have a Patrick Mahomes Kermit the Frog puppet at training camp?\u201d former NFL player Robert Griffin III<\/strong> tweeted<\/a> after seeing the video. \u201cThe man is 10-2 against the Raiders, Chiefs have won 8 straight AFC West titles and they just guaranteed themselves an ass whooping they won\u2019t forget.\u201d<\/p>\n

Under Mahomes\u2019 leadership<\/a>, the Chiefs have won 10 of their last 12 games against the Raiders, dating back to 2018. Kansas City has earned 30 touchdowns when playing the Las Vegas team with Mahomes throwing for 3,573 yards in those games.<\/p>\n
