00:01Patrick Mahomes is back leading the Chiefs, but most NFL fans never saw the demanding routine
00:07behind his return. Mahomes tore the ACL and LCL in his left knee in December 2025,
00:13ending his season and beginning a long rehabilitation process. At one point,
00:18he was spending around seven hours a day at the Chiefs' facility,
00:21working closely with assistant athletic trainer Julie Frymere. Andy Reid saw the commitment
00:26firsthand as Mahomes completed rehabilitation sessions before and after team activities.
00:31She had to, being a mom of three, I mean, she had to kind of take that role on even
00:35more
00:35because I wasn't at the house and I was spending seven hours a day up there in the off-season
00:39when we're supposed to be on vacation or back home in Texas. And it's a full commitment from
00:44the full family. Those long days also forced life at home to change. While Mahomes focused on
00:50rebuilding his knee, Brittany helped keep their family of five grounded and maintain the routine
00:55for sterling, bronze, and golden. His comeback was built through months of largely unseen work
01:00at the facility and support from the family waiting for him at home.
