However, Mahomes is reportedly prohibited from consuming alcohol or illegal drugs, has an interlock device on his vehicle and will need to submit to random drug screenings.

Mahomes was arrested on a driving while intoxicated three or more times charge in Texas on Saturday, according to online records. He was released on $10,000 bond.

He was arrested for driving while intoxicated for the second time in 2018. He pleaded guilty to the charge and was ordered to spend 40 days in jail. He was charged with possession of an open container of an alcoholic beverage in a vehicle in 2014 but later just paid a fine.
