Patrick Mahomes’ Dad Bod diet: Chief’s quarterback loves a cheat meal from Chick-Fil-A or Chipotle and can tuck away TEN ice-creams per night (says Brittany)… but what late-night snack is his guilty pleasure?

Patrick Mahomes’ arrival at the Kansas City Chiefs’ headquarters for OTAs this week left fans questioning whether he was in good enough shape to lead the team to a third consecutive Super Bowl victory.

The quarterback once again found himself the butt of many ‘dad bod’ jokes on social media over a video of him returning to training with a slightly chunkier frame following a well-deserved three months off.

Mahomes, 28, had defended his physique earlier this year after a shirtless photo of him after their AFC Championship win over Baltimore Ravens went viral back in January.

He told TIME: ‘I definitely have the dad bod a little bit. I’ll also say I have a great body for a quarterback. You’ve got to have some padding in there to take the hits that we take.’

Mahomes has every right to claim that he has the perfect physique for a quarterback after leading the Chiefs to three Super Bowl victories and he works hard to stay in fighting shape for the NFL.

He revealed in a 2018 interview with Men’s Journal that he eats four to five meals a day and often has two dinners so he’s not eating too much at one time.

Mahomes underwent a fitness overhaul in the summer of 2020, getting tested for allergies so he could calibrate his diet – which revealed he’s allergic to ‘most nuts’ and grass – and hiring a personal chef, he told Men’s Health in 2021.

However, his self-proclaimed ‘dad bod’ may be the result of some guilty pleasures.

The quarterback has admitted he succumbs to a cheat meal every so often with Mahomes tucking in to chicken biscuits from Chick-Fil-A and burrito bowls in Chipotle, which were reportedly his most-ordered items in 2019 and 2018 on Postmates.

And it doesn’t stop there. Mahomes has also confessed to being a ‘big snacker’, reaching for the chips and candy, including Doritos, Jolly Rancher Gummies, or Starbursts, as late-night snacks.

‘I have to keep my body in shape, so no one tell my trainer this, or the Chiefs, but I’m a big snacker,’ he told GQ Sports in 2023.

The signal caller’s late-night snacking has been a source of teasing from his wife, Brittany.

Brittany, a former professional soccer player, snitched on her husband earlier this year when she revealed that he eats 10 mini-ice cream cones a night.

‘Anyone else eat 10 of these a night… cause he does. Not me,’ Brittany posted to Instagram in March with an arrow pointed toward Mahomes and a laughing emoji.

Mahomes’ taste for ice cream also came up during an October episode of the ‘New Heights’ podcast, when teammate Travis Kelce, who has defended his own ‘dad bod’, and his older brother Jason Kelce discussed the quarterback’s love of Dippin’ Dots.

‘There is something weird with Dippin’ Dots that it is only at amusement parks,’ Jason Kelce said. ‘Like where have you seen Dippin’ Dots? I mean, I guess sporting events, I’ve seen some Dippin’ Dots.’

‘I’ve seen them at Pat Mahomes’ garage,’ Travis responded. ‘He’s got a freezer of Dippin’ Dots.’

Brittany previously exposed his guilty pleasure by sharing that there is one specific snack that Mahomes munches on. In an Instagram story Q&A, a user asked Brittany what’s a ‘funny habit that Patrick has.’ To which she responded, ‘Eat Doritos every night in bed,’ with a laughing emoji.
