Brittany, who has gained a following of her own aside from her NFL MVP husband, is one of the 2024 ‘rookies’ for the magazine.
“I never in my wildest dreams thought this would happen,” said Brittany, who shot her campaign on white sand beaches in Belize. “I’m so thankful and honoured and so excited to be here with this team.”
“I want people to know that they can accomplish anything, even things you never thought would be possible in your wildest dreams,” she added.
The announcement comes on the heels of Super Bowl LVIII in Las Vegas on Sunday. During which Patrick Mahomes will lead the Kansas City Chiefs against the San Francisco in hopes of winning a third championship in the past five years.
In an interview with SI, Brittany described herself as “unapologetically always myself in any setting,” even while dealing with being under the spotlight.

“Be confident in who you are and be unapologetically yourself,” the 28-year-old mother of two said. “People are going to love you or hate you, but finding your values and what makes you ‘you’ to be the best version of yourself is what really matters. Whether that’s health and wellness, being a great wife or mom, or career goals, being the best version of you is the most important thing you can be.”

Brittany shared the screen with Patrick as part of Netflix’s Quarterback series in 2023, which showed the lives, on and off the field, of three NFL QBs.
She also has become fast friends with a certain girlfriend of fellow Chiefs star Travis Kelce. Brittany has been spotted with Taylor Swift not just in luxury boxes watching the team play, but also out for dinners with the pop megastar’s A-list friends.
In fact, Mahomes and Swift are close enough to share a ‘secret’ handshake while celebrating a Chiefs touchdown earlier this season.
