Brittany Mahomes in ‘Birth Prep’ Before Chiefs-Broncos Game…Read More

The Kansas City Chiefs clinched the No. 1 seed after defeating the Pittsburgh Steelers 29-10 on Christmas Day. With a first-round bye and home field advantage secured, they have nothing to play for in Week 18.

Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes, who threw for 320 yards and three touchdowns against the Steelers, is not suiting up against the Denver Broncos on Sunday, along with most the team’s key starters.

While Mahomes is pumped to get an extra week of rest before the playoffs start, there’s another important reason he wanted to lock in that time off. “I told my wife I was gonna get her the No. 1 seed so we can go have that baby,” the 29-year-old told reporters.

Mahomes’ wife Brittany Mahomes, is pregnant with the couple’s third child, and their baby girl is due “any day now,” the three-time Super Bowl MVP revealed.

While Brittany is typically on the sidelines before every Chiefs game, she remained in Kansas City for “birth prep” on Sunday afternoon.

Brittany’s trainer, Kirsty Rae, showed off her client’s workout in the third trimester just hours before the Chiefs-Broncos game kicked off at Mile High Stadium.

Rae wrote, “The last few weeks of pregnancy are my favorite for training. There’s so many benefits. It helps boost circulation, reduces swelling, can ease discomfort, and preps your body for labor!!!!!! Movement can actually help baby get in optimal fetal position for birth.”

Mahomes is hoping their baby girl arrives during his week off. “Hopefully, God works the right way and maybe we can have the baby on the bye week somewhere and then everything will work out perfectly,” he said.

The couple already shares two children , Sterling, 3, and Patrick “Bronze” Lavon, 2. If everything works out according to plan, Mahomes will welcome his third child before the Chiefs become the first team in NFL history win a Super Bowl three-peat.
