Patrick and Brittany Mahomes’ Investment in KC Current: A Game-Changer for the Team’s 2026 Season<\/strong><\/p>\n

Kansas City Chiefs star quarterback Patrick Mahomes<\/strong> is no stranger to the spotlight, both on and off the field. While his attention has understandably been on recovering from the ACL tear he suffered in December, there’s another passion project that he and his wife, Brittany Mahomes<\/strong>, are deeply invested in\u2014the KC Current<\/strong>, Kansas City’s National Women’s Soccer League (NWSL) team. As co-owners, alongside Chris Angie Long<\/strong>, Patrick and Brittany have not only supported the team but have also played an active role in shaping its future.<\/p>\n

In the 2025 season, the KC Current<\/strong> made a remarkable impact, becoming nearly unbeatable in the league. They earned the prestigious 2025 NWSL Shield<\/strong>, which is awarded to the team with the most points during the regular season. With 65 points<\/strong>, they had the highest points tally, 21 wins<\/strong>, 16 shutouts<\/strong>, and 15 multi-goal victories<\/strong>\u2014all league-leading statistics. The team was on an extraordinary run, but the playoff narrative turned unexpectedly when they were sent packing in the quarterfinals by Gotham FC<\/strong>, the No. 8 seed. Despite this, their regular season performance remained dominant, and the team continued to show incredible promise.<\/p>\n

Now, fast forward to the 2026 season<\/strong>\u2014and things aren’t going as smoothly. The Current find themselves in the midst of a three-game losing streak<\/strong>, which has left fans and players alike wondering if they can regain their footing in the highly competitive NWSL. However, a piece of good news has just emerged on April 3, as the Current<\/strong> prepare for a rematch with Gotham FC<\/strong> on April 4. This could be the turning point the team needs to reverse their fortunes and get back on track.<\/p>\n

Temwa Chawinga\u2019s Long-Awaited Return: A Boost for KC Current’s Struggling Offense<\/strong><\/p>\n

\"Patrick<\/p>\n

One of the most pivotal pieces of the KC Current’s<\/strong> success in the previous season was their star forward Temwa Chawinga<\/strong>, who was unfortunately sidelined due to a hip injury during the playoffs. But now, the wait is over. The two-time NWSL MVP<\/strong> is back in action. On April 3<\/strong>, the Current made an exciting announcement: “The reigning MVP is BACK \ud83e\udd29 Temwa Chawinga has been removed from the SEI list and is available for selection for tomorrow\u2019s game.”<\/p>\n

This news came as a huge relief for fans and players alike. Chawinga, who made history as the first-ever player in NWSL history to win the MVP award in back-to-back years<\/strong>, also won two consecutive Golden Boot awards<\/strong>. Her record-breaking performance over the past two seasons, with an impressive 35 goals<\/strong>, was a key factor in the team’s dominance during the 2025 season.<\/p>\n

Last May, she became the fastest player in league history to reach 25 regular-season goals<\/strong>, doing so in just six matches. Her return to the lineup will undoubtedly provide a massive boost to the KC Current<\/strong>, both offensively and defensively. As one of the league\u2019s top talents, her presence is expected to reinvigorate the team and bring back the much-needed edge that propelled them to the top in 2025.<\/p>\n

The Emotional Impact of Chawinga\u2019s Return: What Fans Are Saying<\/strong><\/p>\n

Following the announcement of her return, the excitement among fans was palpable. On Instagram, the team shared a heartfelt quote from Chawinga<\/strong>, which Brittany Mahomes promptly liked: “I lean on my teammates. When I wake up, I look forward to coming here\u2026 the way we talk, the way we laugh together. It\u2019s so important to me to have our big group.”<\/p>\n

The emotional connection between Chawinga and her teammates is clear, and fans can feel it too. One fan commented, “Please save us Chawinga!” while another expressed their joy, saying, \u201cI could cry tears of joy!!!\u201d Even fans who aren\u2019t currently KC fans expressed their excitement, with one writing, \u201cNot even a KC fan and I\u2019m glad to hear this!!\ud83d\ude4c\ud83d\ude4c\ud83d\ude4c.\u201d The bond between Chawinga and her team, combined with her undeniable talent, has created a powerful sense of hope for the KC Current<\/strong> as they try to bounce back from their early struggles this season.<\/p>\n

KC Current’s Transformations: A New Head Coach and Key Player Moves<\/strong><\/p>\n

In the wake of their shocking playoff exit in 2025, the KC Current<\/strong> made a series of significant changes to ensure they were better prepared for the challenges ahead. One of the biggest moves was the hiring of Chris Armas<\/strong> as their new head coach, replacing Vlatko Andonovski<\/strong>, who shifted into the role of the club’s sporting director. This change reflected the team’s desire to shake up their approach and maximize their chances of success in the highly competitive NWSL.<\/p>\n

In addition to the coaching change, the Current<\/strong> made some bold moves in the transfer market. One of the most talked-about deals was the $1.1 million trade of Claire Hutton to Bay FC<\/strong>, which brought in midfielder Croix Bethune<\/strong> from Washington Spirit<\/strong>. The Spirit received a combination of $100,000 in allocation funds<\/strong> and $900,000 in transfer threshold funds<\/strong> in exchange for Bethune, who was seen as a potential game-changer for the Current.<\/p>\n

Before the 2026 home opener<\/strong>, the Current made another big move by acquiring forward Penelope Hocking<\/strong> from another team for a significant $350,000 fee<\/strong>. These acquisitions were made with the intent to strengthen the squad and provide additional support for their offensive and defensive needs.<\/p>\n

Patrick and Brittany Mahomes\u2019 Continued Support Amidst the Struggles<\/strong><\/p>\n

While the KC Current<\/strong> have experienced their ups and downs, Patrick<\/strong> and Brittany Mahomes<\/strong> have remained unwavering in their support for the team. As co-owners, they have not only invested financially but have also shown a deep commitment to the well-being of the players and the future of the team. Despite Patrick Mahomes<\/strong> focusing on his recovery from an ACL injury and spending time with his family, he and Brittany<\/strong> have continued to support the KC Current<\/strong> from behind the scenes.<\/p>\n

So far this season, the Mahomes family hasn\u2019t been able to attend a match in person, but their presence is still deeply felt. Their investment in the team is a testament to their belief in its potential, and the Current<\/strong> have made it clear that they are determined to succeed\u2014not just for their own sake, but also for the fans and the Mahomes family.<\/p>\n

Looking Ahead: Can the KC Current Turn Around Their Season?<\/strong><\/p>\n

As the KC Current<\/strong> prepare for their much-anticipated rematch against Gotham FC<\/strong> on April 4, the stakes are high. The team has struggled so far in the 2026 season, but with Temwa Chawinga\u2019s<\/strong> return, they now have the opportunity to turn things around. This match could prove to be a defining moment for the Current, as they look to reassert themselves as one of the league\u2019s top contenders.<\/p>\n

Fans will be hoping that the addition of Chawinga\u2019s leadership and skills can help the team find their rhythm again. With the Mahomes family\u2019s continued backing, both emotionally and financially, the KC Current<\/strong> are positioned to overcome their early-season hurdles. The question now is: will the return of their star player be enough to spark a resurgence in their season, or will the team struggle to find their footing once again?<\/p>\n

As the 2026 season<\/strong> unfolds, all eyes will be on the KC Current<\/strong> to see if they can capitalize on the changes they\u2019ve made and the support they\u2019ve garnered from their co-owners, players, and fans. If they can find their stride, there\u2019s no telling how far this team can go.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/section>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
