Patrick Mahomes will take the football field with a heavy heart on Sunday ... his grandpa, Randy, is in hospice, according to the 3x Super Bowl champ's mother.
Randi Mahomes revealed the upsetting news Friday morning -- just about 48 hours before kickoff in Kansas City.
"My dad is in hospice & I'm lost for words ud83dude4fud83dude4fud83dude4f," Momma Mahomes wrote on social media ... while also referencing a bible verse, Colossians 3:20.
Randi also shared a photo of her with her father.
The news comes just about a month after Randi called on her followers to send prayers to her dad.
