The Kansas City Chiefs will have their first game of the season that will not be played at Arrowhead Stadium, as they get set to travel to Atlanta to face Falcons. Patrick Mahomes is preparing for the trip, one that will not have wife Brittany and their kids.

It might seem like the signal caller is a strong human being after constantly being hit and he is seen running for his life away from defenders, but he definitely has a soft spot for his family and even after being away for road games, he has to be there for his pregnant wife and two kids.

During an interview with People Magazine, Mahomes revealed that he relies “on FaceTime when the team travels, so that he doesn’t miss out on any family moments,” as this makes him feel closer to them even away from home.

It is almost certain that he is using his plan with T-Mobile, as he has been tied to an advertising campaign with the company and as he says, this is a way to stay close to his family members even on the flight with the rest of the team.

“It makes the distance feel a little smaller when I’m on the road,” he confessed and just in case somebody was wondering, Mahomes is definitely a family man as he has talked about how close he is to his family, specially to his wife and kids.

The Kansas City Chiefs will face the Atlanta Falcons on Sunday Night Football in a game that will feature the defending and undefeated Super Bowl champions against Kirk Cousins who looks to lead his team to a second victory on the season.
