"Congrats y'all" - NFL fans react to news of Patrick Mahomes and Brittany Matthews expecting a second child

Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes and his wife Brittany Matthews have announced that they are expecting their second child. Their family of three is growing to four.

The Chiefs superstar posted a picture via his Twitter and Instagram pages showing himself, along with his wife and cute daughter Sterling holding a sign that reads: "Big sister duties coming soon."

It is a happy time for the Mahomes family, without a doubt. But when the picture landed on social media pages, the reaction was swift and congratulatory.

A fan named Garrett jokingly said that, in nine months from now, it will be February, the month the Super Bowl is held.

A fan named Anita congratulated the pair on their announcement.

A user named Ian asked others to let the pair be happy and congratulated them both as well.

Former Chiefs player Jeff Allen also congratulated the pair on the announcement of their second child.

A fan named Luke jokingly said that Mahomes is going for Phillip Rivers' record of nine children.

Another Twitter user responded to the picture and said that the family deserves all the best and that Sterling will be a great big sister.

One Twitter user posted and said that they were so happy for Mahomes' family after seeing the news.

A fan named Phoebe posted and congratulated the couple and said that she was really happy for the pair.

AFC Championship - Cincinnati Bengals v Kansas City Chiefs

The Chiefs again made it to another AFC Championship last season and had home-field advantage. But as we know, Joe Burrow and the Bengals shocked the NFL world as they defeated the Chiefs, thanks to an Evan McPherson field goal in the dying seconds.

Now as we look toward next season, the Chiefs will want to go one better than they did last year and make it to the Super Bowl. Their road will be significantly harder this time around, however.

Tyreek Hill was traded to the Miami Dolphins and other teams in their division have substantially upgraded. Russell Wilson and Randy Gregory now call Denver home, Davante Adams is a Las Vegas Raider and the Chargers have added J.C. Jackson and Khalil Mack to their already stout defense.

It is shaping up to be a sensational year of NFL with the AFC West looking to be the hardest division in football.
