The Mahomes family is growing, and Patrick Mahomes recently made his first comments about the expected newest addition to his household, including hopes for the baby’s gender.
“Obviously, it’s a blessing to have another baby on the way. I’m excited for it,” Patrick said during a team press conference on Wednesday, Nov. 11.
“I’m hoping that me and Bronze can even up the score,” he joked, implying his wish to have another son. “I’m just praying for a healthy baby at the end of the day.”
The Kansas City Chiefs quarterback and his wife Brittany share four children together: daughter Sterling Skye, son Patrick “Bronze” Lavon III, and daughter Golden Raye.
A reporter then pointed out that every time his wife has announced she was pregnant, the Chiefs have won a Super Bowl.
“I’m hoping. I don’t know if Brittany is,” Patrick said with a laugh. “But I’m hoping if we can keep that going and get another Super Bowl win with a baby on the way, that’d be awesome for sure.”
Brittany and Patrick announced that they’re expecting their fourth baby this week. They posed alongside their three children on the beach wearing white, floral, and neutral colors as they made the huge family announcement.
“Another blessing from God & then there were 6,” the caption read.
The three-time Super Bowl champion reflected on fatherhood a few years ago in an interview and what it means to spend that time with his little ones.
“Being able to go home and see my daughter and see my son, I have a better understanding of being present and enjoying it,” he said on CBS Mornings at the time. “That translates to the football field, and we’ve been on a heck of a run, but I’m trying to enjoy those moments, ’cause I know it doesn’t last forever, even though we want it to.”
“When my kids grow up, I wanted them to see that dad wasn’t just gone just to be gone. I was gone doing something, to build, to be great. And so, whenever they get older, they can see how hard I worked,” he added.
The next time Patrick will be out on the field will be against the Atlanta Falcons on Sunday, Nov. 15 at 1 p.m. EST at Mercedes-Benz Stadium.
