Brittany Mahomes and Normani Heat Up Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Edition

NFL partners are swapping game day for a sun-soaked getaway.

Brittany Mahomes, Normani, Claire Kittle, Ronika Love, Christen Goff, and Haley Cavinder each grace the February 2026 digital edition of Sports Illustrated Swimsuit, dazzling in delicate bikinis during a Floridian beach photo session.

The photoshoot, captured by Katherine Goguen at the South Seas resort on Captiva Island near Fort Myers, highlights these women as they redefine what it means to be an NFL WAG.

At 30, Mahomes shines in a vibrant red two-piece from Ay Que Colour, nodding to her husband Patrick Mahomes’ team, the Kansas City Chiefs. This marks her second appearance in the swimsuit edition, her first being in 2024 where she also opted for red swimwear.

A former professional soccer player herself, Mahomes seized the moment to promote the National Women’s Soccer League and discuss her involvement as a founding co-owner of the Kansas City Current.

“I hope this inspires women everywhere to continue feeling confident and to prioritize their own well-being and self-care,” said Mahomes, who recently welcomed her daughter Golden Raye in January 2025.

Love, 27, expecting her first child with Green Bay Packers quarterback Jordan Love, posed for her cover shot in a $128 Vix tube top and coordinating bottoms. She’s also a professional volleyball player and an alumna of the University of Oregon.

“There’s incredible strength in womanhood and motherhood, and I believe you can embrace that fully, even on a beach looking fabulous,” she commented during the shoot. Pushing against the “WAG” label, Love added, “It frustrated me to only be seen through my relationship. Like him, I’m an athlete too. He could just as well be called a ‘HAB’—a husband and boyfriend.”

Normani, 29, was captured frolicking in the surf wearing a champagne-toned Sole Mare braided bikini. The pop star, who recently got engaged to Pittsburgh Steelers wide receiver DK Metcalf in March 2025, expressed, “I feel incredibly sexy. This shoot celebrates my divine femininity.”

Both Kittle, 31, and Cavinder, 24, are newcomers to the SI Swimsuit edition, whereas Goff, 32, makes her sixth appearance but her first since having her daughter, Romy Isabelle, now seven months old, whom she shares with Detroit Lions quarterback Jared Goff.

The magazine emphasized, “These women are far more than just the partners seen on NFL Sundays. Each is a trailblazer in her own right.”
