Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes is making moves — and we’re not talking about his improvised passes or snow globe trick plays. We’re stepping off the field and onto the pitch for this one.

The Kansas City Current announced Mahomes as a new co-owner. He’s the first active NFL player to have equity in a National Women’s Soccer League team, according to the club.

Patrick follows his wife, Brittany Mahomes — who was a part of the original ownership team — along with Angie and Chris Long.

“Brittany and the Longs have done an incredible job building a world-class organization,” he stated. “I am excited to join another championship-caliber club as it continues to make history.”
