Yep, it turns out Brittany Mahomes is a talented soccer player, and even headed to Iceland in 2017 to play the sport. The University of Texas Tyler Patriots confirmed the big news, revealing that the athlete (who was then known as Brittany Matthews) would be heading to Iceland to show off her skills. But while many people spend their whole lives practicing their sport to go pro, it sounds like playing professionally was actually never really her plan. “I didn’t even see myself playing college soccer when I graduated high school,” Brittany revealed, admitting that she began playing because she had a few friends who did and the training ground was close to her home. She did that for four years while at college, which she revealed had reignited her passion for the sport.
The university posted several photos of Brittany signing her professional soccer contract on Twitter. In the snaps, she had her proud then boyfriend (now husband) Patrick Mahomes by her side, as well as her family.

Brittany was clearly pretty excited about the opportunity too, and tweeted at the time, “Just when I thought I was gonna be tan again, I sign a contract to go play pro soccer in Iceland all summer! No better way to spend it.”
