Patrick Mahomes, the Kansas City Chiefs‘ standout quarterback and two-time Super Bowl champion, is as much a star at home as he is on the field. With two kids and another on the way, Mahomes often shares how being a father enriches his life amidst his demanding NFL career.
In a candid 2021 interview with The Kansas City Star, Mahomes shared a proud parenting win involving his daughter, Sterling. “I don’t want to brag or anything, but she’s slept through the night literally, like, since she was 3 months old,” he said. For the NFL star, such moments highlight the joys of fatherhood.
Sterling, a regular presence at her dad’s games alongside her mom, Brittany Mahomes, has already become a part of Mahomes’ NFL journey. During a 2021 game against the Chicago Bears, Mahomes made a gesture many assumed was aimed at silencing the crowd. Brittany later revealed the truth it was for Sterling, who was napping in the stands.
Brittany and Sterling have become fixtures at Chiefs games, with Sterling sporting protective headsets to shield her from the noise. Mahomes often reflects on how these family moments keep him grounded, even in the heat of a championship chase.
In October, Mahomes humorously sent an on-air message to his daughter through ESPN: “Hey Sterling, go to bed!” Beyond the laughs, Mahomes shared how returning home to his 𝘤𝘩𝘪𝘭𝘥ren is the highlight of his day.
No matter how tired or long the day has been, coming home to her is the best,” Mahomes said. “It’s amazing to watch her grow and change so quickly. Honestly, I wish time would slow down.
The Mahomes family grows
With their third 𝘤𝘩𝘪𝘭𝘥 expected in May 2025, Patrick and Brittany are embracing their growing family. Mahomes continues to balance his NFL stardom with being a hands-on dad, proving that even in the demanding world of professional sports, family moments remain priceless.
