Never heard this before. Just like in the movie "Draft Day", Veach had a Post-It that said "Pat no matter what" on Draft Day 2017. His daughter wrote it and his wife gave it to him. Eric Stonestreet got a picture of the Post-It, had a buddy replicate it out of wood, and gave it to Veach as a gift.

It became, accidental or not, a mission statement for the Kansas City Chiefs, an ethos that would come to define the front office of a perennial Super Bowl contender and, one day, find itself hanging near Veach’s desk.
On a small piece of paper, in the sloppy handwriting of a 6-year-old, was the following demand:
Pat no matter what.
