3S.“STOP ASKING ME THAT!” — Patrick Mahomes SNAPS at Reporter Over Question About Josh Simmons. Chiefs Locker Room Left in TOTAL SILENCE After His Outburst!
TOTAL SILENCE After His Outburst!
KANSAS CITY — It was supposed to be a routine media day for the Kansas City Chiefs — calm, professional, and business as usual. But what unfolded inside the press room quickly became one of the most talked-about moments of the season.
During Friday’s media session, a reporter repeatedly pressed Patrick Mahomes with one question that clearly struck a nerve:
“What happened to Simmons?”
At first, Mahomes maintained his usual composure — polite smile, eyes steady. But as the reporter pushed again, witnesses say the quarterback’s demeanor changed instantly. He paused, exhaled sharply, then leaned toward the mic.
“I said I’m not talking about that right now,” Mahomes snapped. “You can ask about the game, the team, whatever — but stop asking me that.”
The room fell completely silent. Even the clicking of camera shutters seemed to freeze.
According to several journalists in attendance, this was the first time Mahomes had ever publicly lost his cool. Known for his calm under pressure both on and off the field, his sudden frustration sent shockwaves through the Chiefs Kingdom.
Insiders suggest the tension stems from the recent emotional revelation involving teammate Josh Simmons, who had opened up earlier in the week about his family’s hidden health battle. Mahomes, who’s reportedly close to Simmons, has been deeply protective of his teammate’s privacy.
One media insider told reporters:
“Patrick’s been holding a lot in. He’s tired of the gossip, the speculation — he’s trying to keep things respectful. That outburst wasn’t anger… it was loyalty.”
Fans quickly jumped to Mahomes’ defense online, flooding social media with support:
“He’s human. He’s defending his brother — respect that.”
“If you want answers about Simmons, ask the PR team, not the guy carrying the whole franchise.”
After the tense moment, Mahomes ended the session early, nodding to the press with a tight smile and saying simply,
“We’ve got bigger things to focus on.”
Whether you call it a meltdown or a moment of truth, one thing’s clear — Patrick Mahomes just reminded everyone that loyalty runs deep in Kansas City.
And as one fan wrote perfectly on X:
“That wasn’t a quarterback speaking. That was a brother protecting his own.”
