Patrick Mahomes’ family is always in his corner — sometimes literally!
While the Kansas City Chiefs quarterback, 29, took the podium for a post-game press conference on Saturday, Jan. 18 — fresh off of the team’s first playoff win this season — his family sat in the corner in the very front row, cheering him on.

Brittany, 29, and Sterling, 3, stared intensely at Patrick as he fielded a question about a big play in the divisional playoff game, the footage shows. Meanwhile, Bronze, 2, appeared to be slightly distracted, quietly looking somewhere else.
Then, as the toddler toppled over while trying to walk toward his dad, the quarterback yelled, “Woah!” and smiled.
He then grabbed daughter Sterling’s hand as the family exited the post-game presser — that is, until the 3-year-old asked him to lift her up and he sweetly obliged, carrying her out of the room.

The sweet family moment came directly after the Chiefs defeated the Houston Texans with a score of 23-14 in the Saturday playoff game, which the entire Mahomes family also attended — except for their newest addition, daughterGolden Raye.
