Two Baltimore Ravens fans left the M&T Bank Stadium slightly damp on Sunday after heckling Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes' little brother, Jackson Mahomes. After being heckled by the fans following the Chiefs' loss, Jackson responded by pouring a bottle of water on them, TMZ reports.

In the 15-second clip, two Ravens fans taunted Jackson by saying, "I'm so sorry for you."
The remarks did not sit well with Jackson as he uncapped a bottle of water and squeezed it in their direction. In a Wednesday press conference, his brother Patrick Mahomes spoke on the incident, KSHB reports.
"Obviously, it's something we don't want to necessarily do," Patrick said.
"There were things that were said to him and Brittany (Patrick's fiancée Brittany Matthews) that you don't see in the clip," the sibling continued. "He's been good at trying not to respond to that stuff. He takes a lot and he's usually pretty good at it and he'll learn from it and try to stay away from those people as best he can."
Kansas City mayor Quinton Lucas defended Jackson's actions, the New York Post reports.
Leave Jackson Mahomes alone.

Lucas took to Twitter and wrote, "Leave Jackson Mahomes alone," to which Patrick's fiancee Brittany replied, "PREACH."
PREACH????????????

Jackson is currently a marketing student attending the University of Missouri-Kansas City, and he has a strong presence on social media. In May, he uploaded a TikTok video to share the hatred he receives in his replies.
@jacksonmahomes all of the hate that I receive really affects me. I honestly really struggle with it and am trying to stay strong, but it’s become too much.
In July 2020, Patrick signed a 10-year contract with the Chiefs for a whopping $500 million. He also made history as the youngest MLB stake owner after purchasing a minority share in the Kansas City Royals.
