Is Patrick Mahomes staring at a PR nightmare? Chiefs fans concerned after Super Bowl MVP's family member's scathing rant

Patrick Mahomes has seen people of his age in his family create controversy. However, his mother's sister might be on the verge of stirring up a new source of outrage. An alleged video of Tenisha Mahomes, his aunt, has surfaced with direct callouts of his team and Chiefs General Manager Brett Veach.

Fans braced for the comments to blow up into a national news story.

Here's what Tenisha Mahomes allegedly said:

"I still say a lot of this is on Veach. It's on him. He isn't on the field, but he damn sure could have gone and got some help. Stevie Wonder could have seen that this was a problem... Those same receivers dropping balls left and right. And Pat is out there looking a little crazy himself. You got Kelce out there, and the frustration is showing. [00:00:30]"

Tenisha Mahomes continued, naming Veach's "ego" as a culprit for the wide receivers' struggles:

"[00:00:43] Don't tell me that it could, as many burdens could have been lifted if the GM would have been out of his head and let his ego go a little bit and went out there and got some help. [00:01:02]"[19.0]

Patrick Mahomes has been part of only excellence in his time with the team. But the team is in a turbulent position at the time of writing. The Chiefs are third in the AFC at 7-3.

Tua Tagovailoa and Tyreek Hill's Miami Dolphins are top of the conference, with Lamar Jackson's Baltimore Ravens in second at 8-3. With a do-or-die December coming up, the Chiefs are on a 1-2 skid over their last three games.

With just six games left, Mahomes needs to take care of business to vault back into the top spot. Unlike wild card hopefuls who might be able to sneak in with a record slightly over .500 in the coming weeks, securing the top seed takes perfection.

Will the Chiefs pull out a perfect end to the season, or could they be forced to go on the road for the first time in the Mahomes era?
