Kansas City Chiefs quarterback, Patrick Mahomes, is set to sit out the team's first preseason game against the Los Angeles Rams on August 15, as he recovers from ACL and LCL injuries. Head coach Andy Reid stated there is a "pretty good chance" Mahomes won't play next Saturday. This decision comes as the Chiefs aim to have their star quarterback ready for the regular season. Off the field, Mahomes' life has flourished alongside his NFL career. He met Brittany, his high school sweetheart in Texas, while they were both teenagers. They have been together for over a decade, are now married, and are raising three children. Their relationship faced challenges when they attended different colleges but managed to stay strong. In 2017, Patrick was drafted by the Chiefs, and Brittany continued her career in soccer before moving into fitness and business. Today, she stands beside him in Kansas City, and their relationship has grown from high school romance to marriage. Patrick proposed to Brittany at Arrowhead Stadium in 2020, and they married in Hawaii in 2022. Andy Reid is being cautious with Mahomes' return following his injury, which occurred during a game against the Los Angeles Chargers in December 2025. The Chiefs have other quarterbacks who need playing time, including Justin Fields and rookie Garrett Nussmeier. Mahomes' main focus is recovering for the regular season, which begins on September 14 against the Denver Broncos. Meanwhile, the couple has been busy raising their three children: Sterling Skye (born in 2021), Patrick "Bronze" Lavon III (born in 2022), and Golden Raye (born in 2025). As Patrick's football career takes him around the country, Brittany has built her own career and business interests. The couple founded the 15 and the Mahomies Foundation, which supports children and families through various programs. Their public life is hectic, but their family remains a priority in the life they have built together. Brittany has also carved out her place in professional sports beyond being an NFL quarterback's wife, particularly through soccer.
