A chip off the old block! Zoe Mahomes is next in line to carry the torch of the Mahomes family legacy as an athlete. The 10-year-old recently signed a contract with a girl’s soccer team. Now, she has taken things to the next level, looking up to her superstar brother, Patrick Mahomes, for inspiration.

In the latest Instagram video, Zoe was seen endorsing shoes from the local soccer brand Soccer City Richardson. The reel captured Zoe looking at a shoe display with various collections before cutting to her feet, proudly sporting a sleek pair of black trainers. “It’s always a good time to go shopping for new soccer gear. @zoemahomes always finds what she needs at Soccer City Richardson!!” The post caption reads.

It’s Zoe’s first, but you can bet it won’t be her last. The girl is a natural! Well, that shouldn’t be a surprise, considering her brother is a star QB for the Kansas City Chiefs. As a pro footballer, Patrick has earned nearly $25 million in endorsements from big brands like Adidas, Coors Light, and BOSS, to name a few. This isn’t to overshadow Zoe but rather to give her a pat on the back, as she’s clearly on the right track. If she keeps it up, it’s only a matter of time before she partners with major soccer brands like Adidas, Nike, or even Puma. Who knows?

Meanwhile, this brand endorsement follows a celebratory feat in her budding soccer career: signing with the Sting 14G Pre-ECNL Flynn soccer club based in Richardson, Texas. The brand she’s endorsing is also based in Richardson. So, it looks like it’s soon to become a one-stop store for all her soccer gear needs.

In the meantime, she’s just making her papa proud, much like her brother. Mahomes Sr. must be a proud man. And why shouldn’t he be, with such incredible kids? But let’s not forget, it’s his blood that runs in them.

Patrick and Zoe Mahomes got it all from their father?

Patrick and Zoe are step-siblings, but they share one commonality: Mahomes Sr.’s genes. You might be wondering what that has to do with anything. Well, quite a lot! Patrick Lavone Mahomes spent over a decade in Major League Baseball. He played for big franchises like the Minnesota Twins, Boston Red Sox, New York Mets, Texas Rangers, Chicago Cubs, and Pittsburgh Pirates.

And now, he’s just in a pipe dream. Seeing both of his kids do well! You can see how much it means to him. His pride shines through in the way he’s always there to support his ‘baby girl’ and appreciates ‘the man’ his son has become. Mahomes Sr. often posts about Zoe’s on-field performances. One standout post is from a game where Zoe scored a hat trick, captioned, “Yep. I did it again. Keep grinding, baby girl!”

Meanwhile, Mahomes Sr.’s last Instagram post from June 16th, Father’s Day, features a picture of Patrick Mahomes with his daughter, captioned, “Happy Father’s Day.” With Zoe’s recent new ‘deal’ and Patrick’s upcoming season with the Chiefs on the horizon, someone should keep an eye on Mahomes Sr. In the meantime, let us know if you think the 10-year-old Mahomes will break into the USWNT.
