FRISCO, Texas — Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes, Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce, Cincinnati Bengals quarterback Joe Burrow, Dallas Mavericks guard Luka Doncic and Dallas Cowboys quarterback Dak Prescott. What do they all have in common? They or their loved ones have been the target of a recent string of high-profile robberies.
The NFL issued a league-wide security alert in late November after the homes of Mahomes and Kelce were broken into, and Burrow’s home was targeted during Cincinnati’s “Monday Night Football Game” in Arlington, Texas, against the Cowboys on Dec. 9.

“The target that I am, whether it be for a natural robbery, whether it be for losing the game or whatever, I understand the position that I’m in,” Prescott said Wednesday. “So for me, it’s more about today and now protecting my fiancée and my daughter.”
He made it abundantly clear that he didn’t view his fiancée’s car being robbed while she was attending a Pilates class as equivalent to the home burglaries of Burrow, Mahomes, Kelce or Doncic.
“Her situation that was, I don’t want to tie that in, and I don’t want anybody to tie that in with the other things that’s been happening.

So that’s that, but as far as protecting homes and that, yeah I’m going to take every step necessary to ensure the safety and that that doesn’t happen to me.”
