Randi Mahomes is a mom of three — to three-time Super Bowl-winning quarterback Patrick Mahomes, of course, along with his brother Jackson and half-sister Mia — but her kids aren’t the only ones who call her “Mama”!

The ESPYs red carpet was filled with the biggest names in the world of sports – and that often includes their parents. Patrick Mahomes’ mother Randi was on hand at the award show on his behalf and while discussing the closeness of the Chiefs players, she revealed the special name that Travis Kelce calls her.

After telling PEOPLE on the ESPY Awards red carpet that she ran into Patrick’s BFF and tight end Travis Kelce the evening prior at dinner, Randi says that usually when Kelce sees her, he comes up to hug her and says “Mama Mahomes, Mama Mahomes.”
