Patrick shared an Instagram video showing moments from their visit, which included touring the facilities and meeting the student-athletes who are part of the inaugural Team Mahomes NIL class.

The couple donated $5 million toward the $242 million South End Zone and Dustin R. Womble Football Center project. The walkthrough area of the facility will be named after him, along with the university’s quarterback meeting room and the offensive coordinator’s office.

During his visit, he also announced the signing of six student-athletes to NIL deals with Adidas for Patrick’s initiative aptly called Team Mahomes.

Adidas and Texas Tech previously announced in July the partnership, making the athletic brand the official uniforms, footwear, apparel and accessory partner for the university.
