Chiefs fans blame Brittany Mahomes' Trump support for Travis Kelce's poor start to 2024 NFL season

KANSAS CITY, MISSOURI: A week after Kansas City Chiefs fans turned their ire toward Taylor Swift, blaming her for Travis Kelce’s lackluster performance, a new target has emerged—Brittany Mahomes, wife of star quarterback Patrick Mahomes.

Despite a 4-0 start to the season, some fans are attributing the Chiefs' offensive struggles to Brittany's support for former President Donald Trump.

Chiefs fans turn their ire towards Brittany Mahomes for Travis Kelce's lackluster performance

The narrative gained traction following the Chiefs' 17-10 victory over the Los Angeles Chargers at SoFi Stadium, where Patrick Mahomes delivered a mediocre performance, as per Marca.

Though the Chiefs secured the win, fans were far from impressed, with many pointing fingers not only at the star players but also at those around them.

On Sunday, September 29, Patrick threw for 245 yards and managed only one touchdown, while Travis caught seven passes for 90 yards.

Though these stats aren’t disastrous, they certainly fell short of the dynamic, high-octane performances fans have come to expect.

Dissatisfied with the team’s offensive output, a faction of Chiefs supporters has taken to social media, casting the blame in an unexpected direction.

For some, Brittany's political affiliations are seen as a jinx, especially after she publicly declared her support for Trump.

One remarked, "Brittany Mahomes put a curse on the Mahomes family after publicly announcing that she’s a Trump fan. That’s the only explanation for Mahomes being so a** this season."

A person said, "Mahomes' wife and Trump distracting him IMO," while someone else wrote, "Smh ever since trump shouted out brittany mahomes and 'the chiefs' s**t ain’t been the same."

"I think Brittany Mahomes has told her husband to stop throwing to Travis Kelce because she's jealous of Taylor Swift," quipped a Chiefs fan. 

One more remarked, "Travis Kelce has disappeared from the KC offense. Am I the only one wondering if tension between Brittany Mahomes and Taylor is the underlying problem."

""Patrick mahomes isn’t throwing travis kelce the ball because brittany’s mad taylor swift endorsed kamala harris," declared another person. 

Brittany Mahomes wasn't happy with Trump's attack on Taylor Swift

Donald Trump made headlines after he lashed out at Taylor Swift on his social media platform, Truth Social, for endorsing Vice President Kamala Harris following their ABC News debate. The former president had declared, "I HATE TAYLOR SWIFT."

This public attack on Taylor didn’t sit well with Brittany, according to Daily Mail.

Although she had previously shown support for Trump, insiders revealed that the GOP nominee's harsh words about the pop star deeply upset her.

One source shared, "She is questioning her support for Donald Trump after he lashed out at Taylor, saying he hates her. This deeply bothered Brittany because Taylor is like a sister to her and she has done absolutely nothing wrong."

The insider further elaborated, "Brittany Mahomes does not believe in hate in any form and loves Taylor so much. This shook her to the core."

Despite her internal struggle over Trump's comments, the tipster clarified that Brittany is not necessarily switching political allegiances.

They explained, "This doesn't mean she’s suddenly voting for Kamala Harris. It has just made her more aware of supporting Trump so publicly."
