Early Life and College
Patrick Lavon Mahomes II was born on September 17, 1995, in Tyler, Texas, and grew up in nearby Whitehouse. His father, Pat Mahomes Sr., pitched in Major League Baseball for over a decade, so Patrick grew up around professional sports. He excelled at both baseball and football at Whitehouse High School — the Detroit Tigers even drafted him in the 37th round of the 2014 MLB Draft, but he chose football instead.
At Texas Tech University (2014–2016), Mahomes became one of the most electrifying college quarterbacks ever. In 2016 he led the nation in passing yards and became the first player in NCAA history to throw for 5,000 yards and rush for 500 in a single season, also setting the FBS single-game record with 734 passing yards.
NFL Career
Draft and Early Years
The Chiefs traded up to select Mahomes 10th overall in the 2017 NFL Draft. He spent his rookie season on the bench behind Alex Smith before taking over as starter in 2018 — and promptly threw for 5,000+ yards and 50 touchdowns, winning NFL MVP in his first season as a starter.
Super Bowl Championships
Mahomes has led Kansas City to three Super Bowl titles:
- Super Bowl LIV (2019 season) — defeated the 49ers; Super Bowl MVP
- Super Bowl LVII (2022 season) — defeated the Eagles; Super Bowl MVP; also won his second NFL MVP that season
- Super Bowl LVIII (2023 season) — defeated the 49ers in overtime; Super Bowl MVP
He also holds NFL records including the most passing touchdowns in a single postseason (11, tied) and the most total yards by a quarterback in a season (5,614). As of 2026, he has thrown for over 276 touchdowns with a career passer rating above 100.
The $450 Million Contract
In July 2020, Mahomes signed a 10-year, $450 million contract extension — the largest contract in NFL history at the time. Some outlets reported a 2026 restructure pushing the total contract value past half a billion dollars, which would make him the first NFL player with a $500M+ total contract value.
Wife and Family
Mahomes married his high school sweetheart Brittany Mahomes (née Matthews) on March 12, 2022, in Maui, Hawaii. The couple began dating in 2012 at Whitehouse High School, got engaged on September 1, 2020, at the Chiefs' Super Bowl ring ceremony, and have become one of the NFL's most famous couples.
They have three children:
- Sterling Skye Mahomes — daughter, born February 2021
- Patrick "Bronze" Lavon Mahomes III — son, born November 2022
- Golden Raye Mahomes — daughter, born January 2025
Brittany is a former college and professional soccer player (University of Texas at Tyler; played professionally in Iceland), a certified fitness trainer, founder of the Brittany Lynne Fitness brand, and a minority owner of the NWSL's Kansas City Current.
Net Worth
Mahomes' net worth estimates vary widely by outlet:
- ~$160 million — Celebrity Net Worth (2026)
- ~$90–100 million — several other outlets
The gap reflects different methodologies: some count only cash earned, others credit his equity stakes. His wealth comes from the record NFL contract (over $232 million in career earnings through 2025), a reported $20–25 million per year in endorsements (State Farm, Adidas, Oakley, Head & Shoulders, Subway, and more), and ownership stakes across four sports leagues: the Kansas City Royals (MLB), Sporting Kansas City (MLS), the Kansas City Current (NWSL), and an Alpine Formula 1 team stake.
He also founded the 15 and the Mahomies Foundation, supporting youth health and wellness initiatives, and owns real estate in Kansas City and Texas.
