In an interview with People, Patrick mentioned that Jackson came up with the nickname for his brother’s second child, Bronze.
“We were trying to look for something unique and different. Jackson suggested, ‘What about Bronze? It fits nicely with [his sister] Sterling,’ So we went with that.”
Why Was Jackson Mahomes Arrested In 2023?
Jackson Mahomes is no stranger to controversy. In September 2021, he was filmed pouring water on a Baltimore Ravens fan after the Chiefs’ loss at Maryland’s M&T Bank Stadium. When the video went viral, Jackson unapologetically commented, “They were thirsty.”
Later, Jackson revealed that the reason he poured water on the fan was because they made rude comments about his brother and his then-fiancee Brittany. When Patrick found out about the situation, he said that Jackson would learn from his mistakes and stay away from those people as best as he could.
Just a month later, Jackson went viral again after posting a video of himself dancing on a memorial honoring late Washington player Sean Taylor, who passed away in 2007.

Social media users were quick to point out his disrespectful and insensitive behavior. After facing backlash on TikTok, Instagram, and X (formerly Twitter), Jackson issued an apology. “We were directed to stand in that area, and I meant absolutely no disrespect to him or his family,” he wrote on X.
However, these incidents were nothing compared to the situation that happened in February 2023, when Jackson was accused of assaulting a male waiter at the Aspens Restaurant and Lounge in Overland Park, Kansas. He then allegedly kissed the owner of the establishment, Aspen Vaughn, without her consent.
Jackson was arrested on May 3, 2023, on three counts of aggravated sexual battery. He was later released on $100,000 bail and placed on six months of probation.
In January 2024, the charges were dropped after Aspen Vaughn changed her story, stating that the encounter with Mahomes had been consensual and that she hadn’t been entirely truthful with the police. However, her revised statement didn’t align with video evidence where Jackson roughly grabbed her by the neck before pressing his lips into hers.
Regrettably, the incident caused a lot of harm to the owner’s business. Some of Jackson’s fans vandalized the property and left negative reviews in the restaurant, resulting in the owner permanently shutting down the establishment.

Jackson Mahomes’ actions didn’t go unnoticed, drawing anger from both fans and the public. Despite his efforts to repair his image, many fans remained unforgiving. When he attended one of his brother’s games in 2024, fans expressed their outrage. One social media user commented, “Why isn’t [Patrick’s] brother in jail?”
