When Patrick Mahomes knows it’ll be time to retire from the NFL
NY Post
The longevity of Patrick Mahomes’ NFL career will depend on one thing.
The Chiefs quarterback, who is fresh off his second consecutive Super Bowl title and third title overall, explained in a new interview with TIME that his playing future will be contingent on his family.
“I’ve looked, if I played until [retired quarterback] Tom [Brady]’s age, my daughter [Sterling Skye, 3] would be 19, 20 years old,” said Mahomes, who has been named one of the 2024 TIME 100 Most Influential People.
“…I would love to play that long … At the same time, I want to be there for my daughter.
“If I can do that, I’ll continue to play. But if I feel like it’s taking away from my family time, that’s when I’ll know it’s time to go.”
In addition to daughter Sterling, the future Hall of Famer and his wife, Brittany Mahomes, share a son, Patrick “Bronze” Lavon Mahomes III, who was born on Nov. 28, 2022.
