Brittany Mahomes, wife of Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes, publicly criticized the officiating following the Chiefs' game against the Denver Broncos on November 2, 2026. Mahomes described one particular call as the "weakest call" she had seen, expressing frustration with the referees' decisions during the matchup.
The comments came via social media after the conclusion of the AFC West divisional game. While the specific play that drew her ire was not detailed in initial reports, Mahomes' public remarks highlight ongoing scrutiny of NFL officiating standards. The Chiefs and Broncos rivalry has produced several closely contested games in recent seasons, often decided by marginal calls.
Neither the NFL nor the Chiefs organization has issued an official response to Mahomes' criticism. The league typically reviews officiating performances internally but rarely comments publicly on specific complaints from players' family members.
