Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes is staying out of politics and revealing he’s not publicly endorsing Kamala Harris or Donald Trump.

The NFL star revealed he wouldn’t openly support a candidate in the upcoming presidential election despite his wife Brittany Mahomes coming out as a Trump advocate.

“I don’t want my place and my platform to be used to endorse a candidate or do whatever, either way,” Mahomes told reporters on Wednesday, September 11, according to AP.

Patrick Mahomes continued, “I think my place is to inform people to get registered to vote. It’s to inform people to do their own research and then make the best decision for them and their family.”

Patrick Mahomes’ stance comes after Trump embraced Brittany Mahomes’ support for him following Taylor Swift‘s endorsement of Kamala Harris.

Trump called Brittany Mahomes “a big MAGA fan” and said, “That’s the one I like much better than Taylor Swift.”
