The Kansas City Chiefs clinched the No. 1 seed in the AFC, securing a first-round bye and home field advantage in the playoffs. The bye week turned out to be quite eventful for Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes, as his wife, Brittany Mahomes, gave birth to their third child.
Mahomes and Brittany announced they welcomed their second daughter, Golden Raye, on Jan. 12. The famous couple are already parents to Sterling Skye, 3, and Patrick “Bronze” Lavon, 2.
The new father of three retuned to practice on Tuesday. Next up, Mahomes and Co. prepare to face the Houston Texans in the AFC divisional round on Saturday. The Texans entered the wild card round as underdogs, however, they crushed the Los Angeles Chargers 31-12 at NRG Stadium.
While the 29-year-old quarterback might’ve been understandably distracted over wild card weekend amid Golden’s birth, Mahomes revealed that he actually kept a good eye on the Chiefs’ upcoming opponent.

“It was cool that football was on TV in the hospital so I could watch a little bit,” Mahomes said. “Brittany was kind enough to let us watch football as we had our second daughter.”
One woman posted, “She’s an icon for that.” Another person commented, “locked in.”
Mahomes and Brittany announced they were pregnant with baby No. 3 during training camp. At the time, Mahomes didn’t hesitate to say that this child would be their last. “I’m done. I’ll say that. I did three and I’m done,” he told reporters with a smile.
However, the three-time Super Bowl MVP seems to have changed his mind since Golden’s birth.

“I’m good with three kids right now, we’ll see down the line,” he said. “My goal was always three so we’ve had three and we’ll sit there for a while and see if we need another one later on.”
At the moment, Mahomes is focused on winning a historic Super Bowl three-peat, which starts with defeating the Texans on Jan. 18 at 4:30 p.m. ET.

‘I don’t remember if I ever got to meet him or not,’ says Kansas City Chiefs quarterback
Patrick Mahomes has contradicted claims by Donald Trump that Alabama’s Republican Senator Tommy Tuberville coached and recruited the Kansas City Chiefs quarterback. Mahomes told The Philadelphia Inquirer Thursday that he’s not even sure he ever met the guy.
During the president’s executive order signing on Wednesday, Trump praised Tuberville, claiming that he had both coached and recruited Mahomes while he was at Texas Tech University.
“Tommy Tuberville, a great coach,” said Trump, who’s attending the Super Bowl Sunday in New Orleans between the Chiefs and the Philadelphia Eagles. “You know, his quarterback was named Mahomes. He was a great college coach.”
Trump said he asked Tuberville, referring to Mahomes: ”How good was he?” The president said Tuberville responded: “You don’t want to know how good … he made me into a great coach.”
Trump added: “He’s a pretty good quarterback, right? Yeah, he was very good, and he’s a good guy too.”
Many were quick to point out on X that Mahomes and Tuberville never even worked together. Tuberville coached from 2010 to 2012 while Mahomes played football at the school from 2014 to 2016.
“Donald Trump said that Senator Tommy Tuberville coached Patrick Mahomes. Tommy Tubesocks left Texas Tech in 2012, two years before Mahomes arrived,” one post read.
The quarterback unequivocably told the Philadelphia Inquirer Thursday: “He did not recruit me at the time. I don’t remember if I ever got to meet him or not.”
Tuberville appeared to attempt to clarify the men’s relationship in a post on X, yet continued to imply that the two of them had a history. “As a coach, you start recruiting and working with players years before they get to college,” he wrote.
“Patrick Mahomes was one of the best players I ever had the opportunity to recruit and get to know. Looking forward to cheering him on this weekend when I join President Trump at the Super Bowl,” he added.
Trump announced on Tuesday that he would be attending this year’s big game at Caesars Superdome in New Orleans, making him the first sitting president to watch the Super Bowl in person.
Mahomes commented in a press conference about Trump’s attendance, telling reporters: “It’s always cool to be able to play in front of a sitting president – someone that is at the top position in our country.”

Mahomes was also asked about Trump’s previous comments when he called the Chiefs quarterback “a good winner.”
“I don’t want to say, but there’s a certain quarterback that seems to be a pretty good winner,” Trump said when asked what team he would be rooting for.
Mahome said: “It’s cool to hear that he’s seen me play football and respects the game that I play.”
Trump also congratulated Mahomes and his wife, Brittany, on the birth of their third child, one month after the two of them shared the news.
“Congratulations to the Chiefs GREAT Quarterback, Patrick Mahomes, and his very beautiful and BRILLIANT wife, Brittany, on the birth of their new baby daughter, Golden Raye,” he wrote on his Truth Social platform Thursday.
“This is what I call a baby with great genes, both mother and father. It’s happy times in the wonderful Mahomes family. See you all on Sunday!”
