The Chiefs quarterback was not in the photo
rittany Mahomes is a proud mom and a fiercely devoted wife, so it may have registered as a surprise when she took a new family photo without her husband Patrick Mahomes.
The mother-of-two is regularly seen in the stands and she often attends matches with her 𝘤𝘩𝘪𝘭𝘥ren so they can see their dad shine as one of the key players in his team.
When they are at home, Brittany is not shy about showcasing their family life to their fans around the world, posting pictures of her young kids in addition to snaps of her and the 28-year-old football star.
In her latest upload, Brittany captured a heartwarming moment where she could be seen holding hands with her daughter, Sterling Skye.
Her dogs – named Steel and Silver – were also present.
Mahomes, however, was nowhere to be seen.
As it turns out, there is a good reason behind his absence. The Kansas City Chiefs quarterback is away with the team preparing for their game with the New England Patriots on Sunday and was therefore not around to be included.
Mahomes under pressure to deliver
Brittany has made it her mission to boost her husband’s morale after suffering back-to-back defeats against the Buffalo Bills and Green Bay Packers.
In a post to her 2.2 million followers on Instagram, her image showed Mahomes hugging his 𝘤𝘩𝘪𝘭𝘥ren on the touchline, captioning the photo: “Riding with 15 always”.

She also backed him up after Mahomes aimed an angry rant at the officials in that 20-17 defeat to the Bills, criticizing the decision from the referee after a late touchdown was chalked off.
But Mahomes will know the heat is on if they lose their next clash in Week 15 against the Patriots. If the Denver Broncos also manage to win, the race for the AFC West top seed is likely to go down to the wire ahead of the playoffs.
