But before quarterback Patrick Mahomes engaged in their death match with the Philadelphia Eagles for all the NFL’s marbles, she attended Maxim’s 2023 Big Game Party to celebrate her star turn on the mag’s cover.

Immediately after the Chiefs won 38-35, Hunt headed to the winner’s circle for the presentation of the Lombardi Trophy.

In the Maxim cover story, Hunt talked about being born with Chiefs’ DNA running through her body.

“From the time I was a baby toddling around, I was dressed in red and gold and grew up on those sidelines.”

The 23-year-old model is currently wrapping up her master’s degree in sports management at the University of Kansas. Dad also got her a job with the Chiefs working on brand development and marketing.

Next, she’ll be attending the NFL draft this spring in Kansas City.

“You hear about the war room and there really is a war room,” she told Maxim. “Our team’s scouts and coaches work hard to run all the different scenarios so that it takes as much pressure as possible off that moment when you’re on the clock. It’s almost like a game of chess.”

She added: “Identifying talent that other teams might grade differently is essential to a successful draft. Sometimes things don’t go the way you anticipate and it’s about navigating curve balls. Other times, it’s about knowing who you want and making the move to trade up and draft a guy you’re really excited about.”

Besides fun and football, Hunt told the magazine she has a passion for philanthropy. She also discussed her time in the world of beauty pageants and what she’s looking for in a man.
