Patrick Mahomes and Brittany Mahomes are adding another member to the family.
On Tuesday night, Brittany announced that she and the Kansas City Chiefs star are expecting their fourth child. The couple already have three children: Sterling Sky, Patrick “Bronze” Lavon and Golden Raye.
The news comes after Mahomes had said he was finished having kids. In July of 2024, the three-time Super Bowl champion made that clear to the media: “I’m done,” Mahomes said in July of 2024.
“I’ll say that. I said three and I’m done.”
Now, with the family set to grow again in November of 2026, Brittany shared the update on Instagram with a simple message: “Another blessing from God,” she wrote for her Instagram caption. “And then there were 6.”
The announcement drew plenty of reactions from around the NFL world and beyond. “CONGRATULATIONS,” Christen Goff commented.
“Biggest blessings! Congratulations y’all,” Kimmi Chex wrote.
“Woohoooo! Uncle jack cant wait,” Jackson Mahomes said.
“OH MY GOSH!!!! CONGRATS!!!!
So excited for you and your fam,” a fan wrote. “Congratulations to your sweet, growing family,” another person replied.
Mahomes has also been open about how he wants to handle parenting when it comes to sports. He said he won’t push his children into playing.
“I’m going to teach my son, my daughter all the fundamentals and whatever they want to learn,” Mahomes said, via PEOPLE. “But at the same time … I want to let it be about them … That’s what my dad did growing up, that’s what my parents did.
They didn’t pressure me to do anything. I think that’s why I’m in the position I am today.”

Cardinals Turnover Just Opened A Big Debate About What Comes Next
The Cardinals offseason turnover has already reached deep into the organization, with assistant general manager Randy Flores gone, Rob Cerfolio moving up to general manager and hitting coach Brant Brown dismissed as the front office reshapes itself. Chaim Bloom has made clear that the changes are not just about subtraction, either, as the club weighs whether to add outside voices or create openings for people already in the building.
That is where the real debate begins for St. Louis, because the next wave of decisions could touch both the baseball operations side and the dugout. Names such as Donnie Ecker, Kyle Haines, Dave Bush and Trey Baur have surfaced as possible fits, while there is also the question of whether Yadier Molinas role could grow, leaving the Cardinals with several paths and no obvious answer yet.

Cardinals Already Have An Early Bullpen Debate Fans Will Recognize
The Cardinals are already looking at the bullpen market with an eye toward adding a left-handed reliever this offseason, according to MLB Networks Jon Morosi and other reports. It is the kind of familiar winter conversation in St. Louis, where bullpen construction tends to become one of the first real roster debates once the season ends and the front office starts sorting out what the relief mix should look like for the year ahead.
Among the names tied to that search are former Cardinal Giovanny Gallegos, along with free agents Sean Newcomb and Tyler Minter, all of whom bring recent major league experience. The interest makes sense on paper because each offers a different path to filling a need, but the larger question is which direction the Cardinals ultimately choose as they try to balance familiarity, fit and the left-handed help their bullpen may still need.

Mariners Fans Now Have A Real JP Crawford Offseason Question
The Cardinals are looking at ways to smooth the path for their young infield talent, and that has them exploring a veteran third baseman this offseason. Jesus Baez and Rainiel Rodriguez are part of the long-term picture, so St. Louis appears interested in a stopgap who can handle the position now while giving the prospects room to develop without being rushed.
JP Crawford has surfaced as one of the more intriguing names in that mix. The 31-year-old brings a Gold Glove on his rsum, has recent experience at third base and, after the Mariners told him he will not be back in 2026, suddenly fits a different kind of roster puzzle. His left-handed bat and veteran profile could make him a useful platoon piece for the Cardinals, but the bigger question is whether he becomes more than just a short-term bridge. [Read more 🡒]
