When NFL superstar Patrick Mahomes signed the richest contract in sports history—a 10-year, $450 million deal in 2020—the world knew the Kansas City Chiefs quarterback’s life was about to get a whole lot more luxurious.

But Mahomes and his fiancée, Brittany Matthews, have proven that their new fortune isn’t just about splurging on lavish vacations or high-end cars; it’s about investing in both their lifestyle and their community, all while keeping things grounded.

After securing that life-changing contract extension, which included a $140 million injury guarantee, Mahomes and Matthews took a well-deserved break in Cabo San Lucas, Mexico, to celebrate.

But even after such a monumental career moment, the couple has kept their focus on building a home and family, as well as giving back to Kansas City—the city that has supported them from the start.

Their $1.925 million Kansas City home is a prime example of how the couple balances opulence with a sense of homey comfort. Matthews shared that their new nursery, which they’ve decorated in soft pink-and-white tones, has become a favorite spot for their two dogs, Steel and Silver, and has also become an inviting space for their growing family. The home features plenty of space for the pups, including a yard where they can run around—a thoughtful gesture from Mahomes and Matthews, who prioritized their pets’ comfort as much as their own.

But what else do two sports powerhouses do with their fortune? Well, Mahomes is particularly passionate about his sneaker collection. In a 2019 tour of their home, Mahomes proudly showcased his “shoe room,” a space dedicated to his massive collection of sneakers. “I literally wanted [it] my whole entire life,” Mahomes said of the room, which is filled from floor to ceiling with his prized footwear. It’s clear that Mahomes loves his shoes—and with his superstar status, he certainly has the means to indulge in this passion.

In addition to his love for sneakers, the couple also seems to have invested in a state-of-the-art home gym, which Brittany Matthews often showcases on her Instagram. As a former professional soccer player in Iceland, Matthews has turned her fitness expertise into a business, helping others achieve their fitness goals.

Beyond their love of luxury, Mahomes and Matthews have shown a deep commitment to their community. Mahomes, now a part-owner of the Kansas City Royals, and Matthews, who played a role in bringing women’s professional soccer back to the city, are using their wealth and influence to make a positive impact. In 2021, Matthews helped facilitate the move of the NWSL’s Utah Royals to Kansas City, showing her continued dedication to supporting the local sports scene.

Their charitable efforts extend further through the 15 and the Mahomies Foundation, a nonprofit organization Mahomes founded in 2019. The foundation focuses on supporting health initiatives, community wellness, and providing resources to underfunded areas. Since its inception, the foundation has donated over $500,000 to various causes. One notable project they are currently working on is the renovation of Kansas City’s Martin Luther King Jr. Park, which will feature an “all-inclusive play site” to honor Dr. King’s legacy.

Patrick and Brittany’s balance of luxury and philanthropy serves as a reminder that while wealth can certainly bring comfort and opportunities, it can also be used to make a lasting impact on the world around you. Whether they’re living the ultimate luxe life with designer kicks and a luxurious home or using their platform to uplift their community, Mahomes and Matthews are proving that they have the power to influence both on and off the field. And for their fans, it’s inspiring to watch them share their success with others.
