The Kansas City Chiefs may have spent years looking like they were powered by Patrick Mahomes, Travis Kelce and Andy Reid, but there’s a new theory making the rounds: Brittany Mahomes might be the real good-luck charm.
That idea picked up steam after Patrick and Brittany Mahomes announced on Tuesday that they are expecting a fourth baby. The couple revealed the news in an Instagram post, sharing that their family is growing to six.
Their caption read, “Another blessing from God🥹🙏🏼 & then there were 6🤍.” In the photo, they posed with Sterling, Bronze and Golden on a sandy beach.
The timing is what has people talking. When Brittany Mahomes is pregnant, the Chiefs have made it all the way to the Super Bowl.
That’s a pretty wild pattern considering what Kansas City has done with Mahomes at quarterback. The Chiefs have put together a 17-4 playoff record with him as the starter and have won 3 Super Bowls.
Last season, though, they missed the postseason for the first time in the Mahomes era. And to be fair, the outlook was already shaky before Mahomes tore his ACL and LCL.
This season, Kansas City sits at 6-2 and in second place in the AFC West. Home-field advantage in the playoffs is still a tough climb, especially with multiple AFC teams holding the same record or better. The Jaguars also just made multiple trades to strengthen their own Super Bowl push.
So no, nothing is guaranteed. But if the Brittany Mahomes pregnancy trend keeps holding, the Chiefs will feel pretty good about their chances.

Rashee Rices Latest Off-Field Twist Raises A New Chiefs Question
Rashee Rices latest off-field development adds another layer to a situation the Chiefs have already been monitoring closely. The wide receiver filed for Chapter 7 bankruptcy in federal court, listing nearly $3.4 million in total debt and just over $13,000 in available cash, a stark snapshot of the financial fallout tied to his legal troubles.
The filing pauses creditor actions for now, but it does not automatically wipe away what Rice may still owe to people and entities listed in the case. Among the debts are legal fees and settlement claims tied to the 2024 high-speed crash and assault allegations, leaving Kansas City with yet another unresolved question around a player whose future has already been shaped by matters far beyond the field.

Kenneth Walker Is Giving Chiefs Fans A Bigger Debate Than Expected
As the Chiefs keep leaning on Kenneth Walker through the first eight games of the 2026 season, the conversation around him is getting a little bigger than just Kansas Citys backfield. Micah Parsons, working his way back from a torn ACL and meniscus with a return target around Nov. 25, singled out Walker as one of the backs he sees in the same conversation as Bijan Robinson and Jahmyr Gibbs, a notable nod from a player who knows elite talent when he sees it.
For Chiefs fans, the praise only adds to a debate that has been building around Walkers impact. He has been a key part of Kansas Citys success, producing as both a runner and receiver while helping steady the offense, and Parsons comparison puts a sharper spotlight on how high Walkers ceiling might really be. The question now is less about whether he matters and more about just how far his play can carry the Chiefs as the season moves on. [Read more 🡒]
Travis Kelce And Taylor Swift Wedding Had One More Unexpected Chiefs Connection

One of the beneficiaries was the Hancock County Humane Foundation in West Virginia, which shared the news on Instagram and highlighted the couples request. For Chiefs fans, it was another reminder that Kelces off-field moments can still ripple well beyond football, with a feel-good connection that reached all the way to a local animal shelter.
