While football is one of the most physically demanding sports in the world, not all positions require peak bodybuilder physiques. The quarterback, often the most cerebral role on the field and the role played by Brittany Mahomes‘ husband Patrick, is less about raw muscle and more about vision, agility, and decision-making.
That’s why it’s not uncommon to see a star quarterback sporting a physique more relatable than ripped. But when it comes to
Patrick Mahomes interrupts Tom Brady’s dinner to fulfill Brittany Mahomes’ wish of meeting him
The conversation around Kansas City Chiefs superstar Patrick Mahomes‘ “dad bod” has taken a sharp turn this offseason-and for good reason. During a conversation with GQ Sports last year, Mahomes confessed to a diet that would make most nutritionists cringe.
Despite having world-class trainers and resources at his disposal, he couldn’t resist the pull of late-night snacking.

“I have to keep my body in shape. So, no one tell my trainer or the Chiefs,” Mahomes joked. “But I’m a big snacker. I like to eat a lot of chips, candy, whatever it is, especially at nighttime, which I know is the worst part of the day to eat snacks.”
Late-night Doritos and gummies are out, gym gains and discipline are in
His go-to junk food lineup was a purple bag of Spicy Sweet Chili Doritos (a recent favorite after switching from Cool Ranch), and a stash of gummies.
“I grab some gummies, with like Jolly Rancher gummies. Green’s my favorite flavor. Or Starburst, and Red flavor is the best,” he added.
Not surprisingly, Mahomes showed up to 2024 training camp with what fans playfully dubbed a “dad bod.” And while he still lit up the field, critics and fitness purists took notice.
Nutritionists warn that late-night binges on heavily processed foods can lead to poor sleep, acid reflux, and weight gain-issues no athlete, no matter how talented, wants to deal with during a grueling NFL season.
But things have changed. After a frustrating Super Bowl LIX loss to the Philadelphia Eagles, Mahomes didn’t just reevaluate his playbook-he reevaluated his body.
This offseason, he’s reportedly committed to transforming his physique and finally putting an end to his unhealthy late-night habits.
Sources close to the team say Mahomes has leaned into a structured fitness program and is prioritizing clean eating and recovery.
And from the looks of his recent public appearances-whether shirtless on Miami Beach or grinding in the weight room-it’s clear he’s not playing around. Mahomes appears noticeably leaner and more toned, a testament to his off-season grind.
