Patrick Mahomes calls home burglary ‘frustrating, disappointing’

The homes of the Kansas City Chiefs’ Patrick Mahomes and Travis Kelce were burglarized within 48 hours of each other in early October, according to multiple reports.

First reported by TMZ, the events took place as the Chiefs’ stars were set to play the New Orleans Saints on ‘Monday Night Football’ on Oct. 7, when Kansas City would improve its record to 5-0.

However, on the night before, Belton, Missouri, police reportedly were called to Mahomes’ residence around midnight on Oct. 6 after a member of the quarterback’s security team called it in.

According to police documents obtained by The Kansas City Star, the Cass County Sheriff’s Office report characterized the incident as “Burglary/Breaking & Entering,’ while calling it an ongoing investigation.

Officials reportedly said there were no signs of forced entry at the Belton estate.

‘Obviously, it’s frustrating, disappointing,’ Mahomes said while meeting with the media Wednesday ahead of the Chiefs’ Week 11 game against the Buffalo Bills. ‘I can’t get into too many of the details because the investigation is still ongoing. But obviously it’s something that you don’t want to happen to, really anybody, but obviously yourself.’

The same can’t be said for Kelce’s Leawood, Kansas, home, which reportedly was broken into at around 7:33 p.m. local time on Oct. 7, a short time after ‘Monday Night Football’ kicked off. TMZ reported that documents showed that $20,000 was taken from Kelce’s home and the back door was damaged. They added that Kelce and Taylor Swift, who attended the game, elected to stay at a Kansas City hotel afterward in the interest of safety.

The Kansas City Star reported that Leawood Police Department records show a burglary was reported around 1:36 a.m. on Oct. 8 on Kelce’s street in Leawood.

Kelce and Swift were seen in New York City in the days that followed as the Chiefs entered their bye week.

Kelce purchased his home in 2023 and has received plenty of public attention since he began dating Swift.

Mahomes and his family moved into the mansion in 2023. The home was featured on the Netflix documentary, ‘Quarterback,’ when it was still being built.
