People Editorial Guidelines Updated on February 6, 2024 04:55PM EST Photo: Brian Rothmuller/Icon Sportswire via Getty The Super Bowl is a momentous occasion for the hardworking players, coaches and passionate NFL fans, but it's also a family affair. Athletes fortunate enough to make it to the most important game of the year are supported by family members — blood or otherwise — who have helped to shape their careers and make their dreams come true. That includes Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes and his parents, mom Randi Martin and dad Pat Mahomes, and fellow Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce's tight-knit family. With football being a family sport, it's no wonder NFL stars' kids become their No. 1 fans. As exciting (and nerve-racking!) as it is to see which team walks away with the championship on Super Bowl Sunday, it's also a heartwarming bonus seeing a player's loved ones cheer them on from the field and in the stands. From Patrick to former NFL legends Tom Brady and Peyton Manning, here's a look at some football dads celebrating the big game with their kiddos. 01 of 09 Patrick Mahomes' Daughter Brynn Anderson/AP/Shutterstock When the Chiefs defeated the Philadelphia Eagles, 38-35, in Super Bowl LVII in 2023, Patrick's wife Brittany and daughter Sterling Skye joined him on-field as he accepted the award for Super Bowl MVP and celebrated with the rest of the team. Patrick is the youngest quarterback to start a fourth Super Bowl, facing off against the San Francisco 49ers for Super Bowl LVIII on Feb. 11, 2024. We're sure Sterling and brother Patrick "Bronze" Lavon III will be among his cheering squad. 02 of 09 Harrison Butker's Kids Gregory Shamus/Getty After Chiefs' kicker Harrison Butker scored a last-second field goal to win the 2023 Super Bowl for his team, he celebrated on the field with his son, James, and daughter, whose name has not been publicly shared. Butker made confetti angels as his kids — wearing matching Butker jerseys and headphones — watched from above. 03 of 09 Matthew Stafford's Kids Andy Lyons/Getty Images Los Angeles Rams quarterback Matthew Stafford celebrated his team's victory over the Cincinnati Bengals in the 2022 Super Bowl with wife Kelly's four young daughters: twins Chandler and Sawyer, Hunter and Tyler. 04 of 09 Matthew Stafford's Kids Keith Birmingham/MediaNews Group/Pasadena Star-News via Getty Images The girl dad's little ones were all smiles, playing in the confetti after Super Bowl LVI in Los Angeles. 05 of 09 Cooper Kupp's Kids Cooper Kupp celebrates Super Bowl win.

Here, daughter Vivian showed off her enthusiasm, alongside his son Benjamin, after dad's New England Patriots won Super Bowl LIII in 2019. Brady also shares son Jack (not pictured) with ex Bridget Moynahan. 07 of 09 Peyton Manning's Daughter Sean M.
