Brittany Mahomes ain’t just being the supportive wife—she’s throwing down the gauntlet in the competitive spirit department. The Chiefs’ QB Patrick Mahomes might have a half-billion-dollar contract and Super Bowl MVP accolades, but Brittany says there’s another rivalry playing out at home, and she’s ready to win it.
During a sit-down on the WHOOP podcast, Mrs. Mahomes let it slip that she might be more competitive than her superstar husband. “I think I’m maybe a little bit more competitive than him at times,” she joked. “For Patrick, it definitely helps, you know, having that competitiveness. And that’s engraved in me, in my background, so I think it helps to have someone like that around you. I think I kind of keep that fire in him going… just because I’m a little bit more fiery than he is.” Dang, talk about a power couple!
Meanwhile, Chiefs fans are splitting over offensive coordinator Eric Bieniemy’s praise for the three-time Super Bowl champ. Bieniemy didn’t hold back, calling Mahomes a “competitive prick”—a compliment in football terms. And he wasn’t wrong. Four years ago, the night before the Chiefs’ QB flew to Kansas City to sign his half-billion-dollar deal, he was stressed over a missed workout. Now that’s some stuff!

Bieniemy doubled down on his assessment, saying, “Kudos to Pat. He’s done one heck of a job. He wants to improve at everything he can possibly improve upon. He wants to be the best at whatever he can do.” And it shows. Mahomes has set the tone for the Chiefs, leading by example on and off-field. Former teammate Tyreek Hill echoed this sentiment, praising the 28-year-old for his relentless drive: “Pat loves to compete. He always wants to win. And he always brings the best out of each and every one of us.”
While Brittany playfully claims to be the more competitive one, there’s no denying Mahomes’ drive. But Brittany’s words reveal that their competitive spirit’s a shared strength—one that pushes both of them to greater heights. And for the Chiefs, that’s a win-win.

Back in May, the father of three also shared a sweet shout out. “She pushes me to be great,” Mahomes spilled on Logan Paul’s Impaulsive podcast, throwing in some serious wife appreciation: “She’s done a lot of great things herself.” The Texas Tech standout’s always quick to credit his wife for keeping things running smoothly at home so he can stay focused on his game. “People don’t even realize how much she does,” he said, calling her a “hall of fame mom” and “hall of fame wife.”
With every post, Brittany reminds us that even MVPs have their soft side and those low-key family moments? They’re what make the Mahomes’ story one for the books.
