Patrick Mahomes Reacts After Chiefs TE Announces Personal News
Posted October 27, 2025
Noah Gray had big news to share.
Patrick Mahomes and the Kansas City Chiefs will eye their third straight win in Week 8 of the 2025 NFL season, hosting Dan Quinn and the Washington Commanders on “Monday Night Football.” The Chiefs are coming off a dominant 31-0 win in Week 7 over the Las Vegas Raiders, a game where Mahomes completed 26-of-35 passes for 286 yards and three touchdowns.
Travis Kelce is in his 13th season with the Chiefs, and his first since getting engaged to Grammy Award-winning artist Taylor Swift. The former Cincinnati Bearcats standout has remained as one of Mahomes’ favorite targets in 2025, recording 31 catches for 375 yards and two touchdowns. But Kelce isn’t the only Chiefs tight end with something major to celebrate in his personal life.
Noah Gray, after a college career with the Duke Blue Devils, was drafted by the Chiefs in the fifth round of the 2021 NFL Draft. He has served as one of Kelce’s backups in each of his five seasons, breaking out in 2024 with 40 catches for 437 yards and five touchdowns, all career highs. This year, he hasn’t found much of a role, tallying just nine catches for 75 yards.
Gray has been accompanied by his wife, Mary Elise Gray, throughout his entire NFL career. The couple met at Duke in 2020 and married two years later. In March of last year, they welcomed their first child to the world, a daughter named Naomi. And on Saturday, the Grays announced that their family of three has now become a family of four.
“Noah’s girl army is getting a tiny bit bigger 🎀🩰,” the Gray couple wrote in a dual post on Instagram, sharing numerous photos of the whole family.
Even Mahomes, who has three children with his wife, Brittany, was left excited for his tight end, congratulating the Grays in the comments.
“Congrats!❤️,” Mahomes wrote.
Mahomes and the Chiefs will host the Commanders on Monday at 8:15 p.m. ET.
Dolphins Fans Express Sadness Dan Campbell Is Not Their Coach
The Detroit Lions have enjoyed a nice stretch of success since the 2022 season.
Entering Week 8, several teams and their fans are now realizing their chances of qualifying for the playoffs are slim.
Supporters of the Miami Dolphins have been reflective the last several weeks, as the team sits with a 1-6 record.
The team has not won a single playoff game in a quarter-century, and the future of the current front office and coaching staff seems unstable.
On occasion, fans will post on social media highlights of former Dolphins interim head coach Dan Campbell, including a passionate speech given after earning his first victory in Miami, a 38-10 victory over the Tennessee Titans back in October of 2015.
Some fans took to social media to wonder why Campbell was let go, while others shared their belief it was unfair to assume he would have had success, given his inexperience at the time.
One supporter shared, "Bc the he “wasn’t ready” bs that we were all fed. I didn’t care that he wasn’t ready he was the man for the job and could’ve done it on the fly. Probably would’ve taken longer to get it all right like he does right now, but he had the foundation."
According to the Miami Herald, "At the time he was an interim coach he was still a little green, but has leadership qualities that stood out. He went on to work for Sean Payton and learned a bit more about being a head coach. Those years helped him put together a quality staff. He wasn’t an immediate success in Detroit, but they were patient and waited for his approach to create roots."
Dolphins coach Mike McDaniel is on the hot seat and there has been a heavy amount of skepticism regarding his ability to lead effectively.
“The way I look at this job is I find it very offensive to all parties involved if I'm thinking about having a job. I need to be doing my job. As long as I’m the coach for the Miami Dolphins, they will get everything from me," McDaniel said after losing to the Browns, via Dolphins OnSI. "I refuse to spend my time thinking about something that you have your job, you do your job and you do it to the best of your ability, and that’s where my concern lies. I think it’s offensive to all coaches, players, and the organization, if I’m spending that precious time thinking about myself.”
Here is a sample of Dolphins media and supporters expressing their frustration the former NFL tight end was not their head coach.
