Brittany Matthews Mahomes has not been shy about defending her husband, Patrick Mahomes, the star quarterback for recent Super Bowl winners the Kansas City Chiefs.
She is arguably Mahomes’ most vocal supporter and has been by his side since he was tearing up the field at high school and then at Texas Tech University.
She has come in for some frightful trolling over the years, as some take exception to the way she celebrates the NFL star’s every success. But Brittany, 27, has also not held back when she feels that someone needs to be put in their place on social media.
Here are some occasions in which Brittany felt things could not be left alone and has shared her thoughts while defending her husband.
While Mahomes is being hailed as the rightful owner of the NFL’s best quarterback crown, now that Tom Brady has finally retired for good this time, there are still some who feel he needs to be brought down a rung or two.
After a defeat, a Kansas City Star reporter said that while Mahomes is a “good quarterback” he is not a team player and that “Mahomes puts the ‘i’ in team and only focuses on himself.”
In a scathing opinion piece, the writer also said: “He doesn’t care if his team wins or loses. All he cares about is how he looks.”
Brittany was quick to refute this, jumping to her husband’s defense. She tweeted: “Y’all are extremely ignorant for this. Kansas City doesn’t do this to its people, what a joke you guys are.”
NFL officials are not off the list of those Brittany will take on if she feels her husband has been slighted.
When the Chiefs took on the Los Angeles Chargers in 2023, Brittany shared her displeasure after Mahomes was hit below the knee. Officials called against the offense, saying that Chiefs offensive tackle Andrew Wylie had thrown Chargers pass rusher Joey Bosa into the quarterback.
Mahomes was limping after the play but stayed in the game. Brittany sarcastically let the officials know what she thought, tweeting: “Guess we can hit QBs like that now.”
Hitting Back at the Haters
Brittany has no qualms about hitting back at those who attack Patrick. When one person tweeted that “apparently it’s the cool thing” to go after the Chiefs quarterback, she tweeted: “Yup the cool thing to do. Quite hysterical how something like that can become cool.”
This followed reports that Mahomes had asked her and his brother, Jackson Mahomes, to stay away from games during the 2023 season.
Angered by this, the NFL star tweeted back: “Y’all just be making stuff up these days.”
Brittany then added her thoughts by quote-tweeting her husband’s comment and adding one word: “legit.”
