Overview
- Brittany Mahomes said on Instagram she has De Quervain’s tenosynovitis, a painful thumb-side wrist condition, and showed a brace she will wear while she heals.
- She kept training with adjusted workouts after seeking care, sharing clips that indicate she is modifying exercises rather than stopping activity.
- De Quervain’s, often called “mother’s wrist,” stems from inflamed tendons used in gripping and lifting; doctors commonly treat it with rest, splinting, and therapy, and it is frequently linked to lifting young children.
- Brittany accepted United WE’s inaugural Champion for Change award at CPKC Stadium for her leadership with the NWSL’s KC Current, and Patrick Mahomes publicly congratulated her.
- Chiefs GM Brett Veach and coach Andy Reid said Patrick is ahead of schedule in his ACL/LCL rehab and may do some offseason work under tight limits as OTAs and June minicamp approach.
