“It’s always a good time to go shopping for new soccer gear.” This Instagram caption from Zoe Mahomes in July highlights another individual in the Mahomes household who is ready to dominate the world of sports.
While big brother Patrick Mahomes is busy slinging touchdowns this NFL season, little sister Zoe is out polishing her soccer skills but she isn’t alone in her strive as Pat Mahomes Sr. accompanies the talented 10-year-old.
Pat Mahomes Sr. pulled a disappearing act during the Chiefs‘ Week 1 clash against the Ravens. The final score? Chiefs 27, Ravens 20.
But the real score everyone’s talking about? Dad 0, NFL game 1. Instead of cheering from the Arrowhead stands last week, Pat Sr. was on a different field altogether today, rooting for 10-year-old Zoe.
In a recent Instagram post captioned “After last night W 💙🤍”, Zoe Mahomes shared a proud papa moment. One snap shows him beaming alongside Zoe on the soccer field. Another captures a touching pre-game stretch session. The highlight reel? A video of Pat Sr. giving high-fives to Zoe and her teammates.
What’s your reaction?
Did Patrick Mahomes’ dad just snub the Chiefs for his daughter’s soccer game? React!
This family fumble has fans scratching their heads. After all, Pat Sr. has been Patrick’s sideline MVP since his high school days. Remember that iconic Super Bowl bear hug? It was pure father-son magic. But lately, it seems Pat Sr. has been running a different play.
The signs have been there. Back in August, Pat Sr’s charity golf tournament swung into action without his Mahomes in sight. Even Travis Kelce, the Chiefs QB1’s gridiron partner, managed to chip in with a social media like. But from Patrick Mahomes? Zilch. Adding another layer to this family layer cake, Brittany Mahomes, Patrick’s better half, seemed to give Pat Sr. the silent treatment on her birthday.
She shared the love for everyone else in the Mahomes clan but left her father-in-law’s wishes on read. Now let’s turn our attention to Patrick Mahomes lesser-known sibling. While Patrick’s arm is making waves in the NFL, Zoe’s feet are causing ripples in the soccer world. And Pat Sr. is clearly Team Zoe.
A new Mahomes kicks into gear
Zoe’s soccer journey is no small kickabout. She recently inked a deal with the Sting 14G Pre-ECNL Flynn soccer club in Richardson, Texas. The signing day was a big deal, with Zoe nervously adjusting her pen before signing the contract, all captured in a video shared by the club. “It’s always a pleasure to be able to help our local Sting girls on their big signing day!” the club posted.
And she’s not just playing – she’s dominating. Hat tricks? Check. Endorsement deals? Double-check. In a recent Instagram video, Zoe was seen strutting her stuff for Soccer City Richardson. As the post gushed, “Zoe always finds what she needs at Soccer City Richardson!!”
Pat Sr. is over the moon about Zoe’s soccer stardom. After one particularly impressive hat trick, he crowed on social media back in July, “Yep. I did it again. Keep grinding, baby girl!” It’s clear that Pat Sr. has found his new cheerleading gig.
But let’s not forget, it’s Pat Sr.’s athletic genes running through both kids’ veins. As a former MLB pitcher who played for powerhouses like the Minnesota Twins and Boston Red Sox, he knows a thing or two about sports success. Now, he’s living every dad’s dream – watching both his kids knock it out of the park (or kick it into the goal) in their respective fields.
Zoe, who plays center midfielder, has been turning heads with her performances. During the Spring Bash Tournament, she led her team, Sting Pre-Elite G14 Brave, to a 2-1 victory over Attack FC 13G. Her coach praised her “grit, perseverance, and determination,” noting how the team bounced back from a loss to win against the same opponent the next day.
Stay tuned, sports fans – this family game is far from over! With Zoe’s budding soccer career and Patrick’s continued NFL dominance, the Mahomes name is set to dominate sports headlines for years to come – on and off the field.
