The Mahomes family welcomed a baby girl named Golden Raye during the Chiefs’ playoff bye, which meant that the quarterback was still very busy.

“Brittany crushed it,” he told reporters in a press conference this week (H/T Page Six), adding that it was fun to see how his two other children reacted to the arrival of their new little sister.

“It’s been cool to welcome another baby girl to the family and see how my other kids reacted to her and have a baby sister and stuff like that,” he said. “So, it’s been a lot of fun.”

While the focus was on his wife and their incoming bairn, Mahomes was still keen on the playoff action taking place around the league.

“It was cool that football was on TV while I was in the hospital,” he noted. “So, I was able to watch a little bit.”

Patrick Mahomes Going For No. 3 On The Field Now

Patrick and Brittany announced the arrival of their newborn in a heartwarming Instagram post, sharing a black and white photo of them holding her feet.

The quarterback and his team had the privilege of watching from afar after going 15-2 and earning a postseason bye. They will return to the field on Saturday against the Houston Texans, whom they will host at Arrowhead.

Meanwhile, the Chiefs are in the hunt for a third successive Super Bowl, which would cement their legacy as the football dynasty of the current era.

While they hardly played at their best during the regular season, Kansas City proved time and time again that they know how to win football games.
