Just weeks after the incident with the fan in Baltimore, Jackson Mahomes went viral for another misstep. In October 2021, the Kansas City Chiefs were on the road again. This time, they were at FedEx Field. Washington was honoring former NFL safety Sean Taylor, who was tragically killed in 2007.
There was a sideline memorial with the #21 painted for Taylor. It was roped off to prevent any damage. Jackson Mahomes performed one of his infamous Tik Tok dances on the memorial.

After the video was posted to social media and the influencer received backlash for his actions, he issued an apology. He stated that he was told that he should stand there.
“I want to sincerely apologize for accidentally being on the Sean Taylor #21 at FedEx Field. We were directed to stand in that area, and I meant absolutely no disrespect to him or his family.”
There was no direct response from Patrick Mahomes on this matter.
