Patrick Mahomes Has No Words for Wife Brittany’s Big Announcement

As Patrick Mahomes recovers from an injury that’s kept him sidelined during the Kansas City Chiefs’ pursuit of the playoffs, his wife, Brittany Mahomes, is earning recognition for her own impressive accomplishments. This time, it’s not Patrick making headlines, but his wife, the former soccer player, and co-owner of the Kansas City Current, who is receiving a prestigious accolade.

A Season to Remember for Brittany Mahomes

While Patrick Mahomes is working his way through rehabilitation after tearing his ACL and LCL in Week 15 of the 2025 season, which unfortunately ended his season early and dashed the Chiefs’ playoff hopes, it’s Brittany who’s making her own mark in sports history.

Patrick, who had surgery under the care of Dallas Cowboys physician Dr. Daniel Cooper, is focusing on his recovery in hopes of being ready for the start of the 2026 NFL season. Despite his injury, he remains in high spirits, leaning on the support of his wife and their three children—Sterling, 4, Bronze, 3, and Golden Raye, 1. In a recent interview, Mahomes admitted that being with his family, especially during this difficult time, has been key to his mental recovery.

I think that’s been good for my mental is just being around the kids, and being around the family and having a lot of great people around me.”
