"Mom needs her sleep...": Patrick Mahomes revealed son Bronze's unexpected habit that had become a parenting challenge for Brittany Mahomes
Patrick Mahomes may be used to making big decisions under pressure on the football field, but life at home comes with a different set of challenges. The Kansas City Chiefs quarterback recently shared a funny glimpse into his family routine, revealing that his youngest son, Bronze , has developed a particular liking for one of his favourite snacks. The little boy's growing interest in Doritos has even forced the NFL star to rethink his own snacking habits. And, as Patrick admitted, keeping his son away from too many chips before dinner is becoming a familiar parenting battle.

Patrick Mahomes revealed son Bronze shares his love for DoritosIn an interview with PEOPLE published on January 14, 2025, Patrick Mahomes opened up about his family's everyday habits and revealed that his children have started picking up some of his preferences.
The quarterback admitted that Bronze is particularly fond of Doritos. What makes the situation amusing is that his son's interest often begins whenever Patrick reaches for a packet himself.
"My kids love them, Bronze especially."
Patrick explained that Bronze has learned to recognise the snack and often asks for some whenever he sees his father eating it. For the football star, however, sharing his favourite treat comes with a small responsibility.
He has to make sure the little boy does not eat so many chips that he loses interest in his proper meals.
It is a simple household moment, but one that offers a glimpse into Patrick's life away from football. Despite his demanding NFL schedule, he remains involved in the little routines that come with raising young children.
Patrick Mahomes revealed the bedtime habit Brittany cannot standBronze's Doritos obsession is not the only funny detail Patrick Mahomes shared during the interview. The quarterback also revealed that his wife, Brittany Mahomes , is not particularly fond of his late-night snacking habits.
Patrick admitted that he sometimes enjoys eating Doritos in bed. However, the sound of the packet can become a problem when Brittany is trying to sleep, especially after a busy day with their children.
He explained:
"Whenever you have kids and mom needs her sleep, you have to be great at not making noise in bed."
The comment offered a humorous glimpse into their marriage and the small adjustments that parenthood brings. With three young children at home, getting enough rest is important for both parents.
Patrick's comments also showed how family life has changed his everyday routines. A packet of chips might seem harmless, but even a little noise can disturb a tired parent.
For the Chiefs quarterback, these moments are far removed from the pressure of an NFL game. Yet they are part of the everyday experience of raising Sterling, Bronze and Golden with Brittany. And if Bronze continues following his father's snack preferences, Patrick may soon have to share his favourite chips more often than he expected.
