Brittany Mahomes’ Pregnancy Could Be The Good Luck Charm Chiefs Need For Another Super Bowl Run

Patrick Mahomes announced that his wife, Brittany, is pregnant with their fourth child, and fans spotted an odd pattern right away. Each time Brittany has been pregnant during a season, Kansas City has reached the Super Bowl. Mahomes also raced back from a torn ACL to start Week 1 this year, and he shook off a scary elbow hit against the Jets. The Chiefs are chasing the AFC West lead, so the news gives supporters something fun to talk about.

Brittany Mahomes' pregnancy and the Chiefs' Super Bowl pattern

The pattern starts in 2021. Sterling Skye Mahomes was born on Feb. 20, 2021, less than two weeks after the Chiefs lost to Tom Brady and the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in Super Bowl LV. Brittany was pregnant for most of that season.

Next came Patrick "Bronze" Lavon Mahomes III, born in November 2022 after another pregnancy year. The Chiefs beat the Philadelphia Eagles in Super Bowl LVII that season.

Golden Raye Mahomes arrived in January 2025, a month before Super Bowl LIX. Kansas City lost that one to the Eagles in a rematch.

That makes three pregnancies and three Super Bowl trips, with the Chiefs going 1-2 in the games. A trip is a trip, though. It is a fun stat, nothing more.

Why this Chiefs team still has a real shot at a Super Bowl run

The roster matters more than trivia. Running back Kenneth Walker III arrived this summer on a three-year, $43 million deal. Travis Kelce is still producing in his 14th season, and he caught a touchdown from Mahomes against the Jets. The defense has played better than many expected. A deadline addition like Josh Downs would give Mahomes another target at a position Kansas City has needed help with all year.

Health is the bigger question. Mahomes hurt his elbow against New York, and an MRI reportedly showed a strain or sprain with nothing catastrophic. He kept playing and threw a touchdown after the hit, which suggests he is fine. The Chiefs will still watch him closely before the Falcons game.

For the family, Brittany's health comes first over the next few months. Mahomes has played through big life changes before, and the Chiefs have a long history of January football.
