Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes responded to a report he had to sit-down with fiancee Brittany Matthews and brother Jackson to instruct them not to attend any games in 2022.

Rich Ohrnberger, a former NFL player-turned-analyst on TV and radio, relayed the message from a source. Ohrnberger tweeted that Mahomes believed Matthews and Jackson had become a "distraction" over the course of the season.

Matthews caused a stir when she sprayed champagne on fans after the Chiefs won a playoff game at Arrowhead Stadium, and Jackson came under fire over his TikTok dances, an apparent outburst at a local bar and his dumping of water on Baltimore Ravens fans after a Chiefs' loss.

The Chiefs star reacted to the report on Twitter.

"Y’all just be making stuff up these days," he wrote, as well as retweeting a FanDuel tweet.

Ohrnberger later admitted the information he got was from a source who was "posing as someone I trust."

"I can’t substantiate the information that I tweeted out earlier today regarding Patrick Mahomes and his family. The source I received this information from was posing as someone I trust," Ohrnberger wrote.

"I will delete this tweet later today along with the original thread. Please pass this along."
