Pat Mahomes Sr., the father of Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes, played for the Nashville Sounds in 2003 and 2004.

Former major league pitcher Pat Mahomes agreed to five years of probation as part of his guilty plea to a third driving while intoxicated charge today.

The agreement includes one year of “intense supervision,” and should he live up to the terms of probation, he will not serve prison time.

Mahomes will be formally sentenced Sept. 23 in district court in Smith County, Texas.

The father of Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes, the elder Mahomes previously was arrested on DWI charges in 2008 in South Dakota and February 2019 in Smith County.
