“I’m definitely looking for that No. 1 draft pick,” Hunt told the lads magazine.

“My top three things: Does he align with me on a faith basis? Is he athletic? What does his work ethic look like? And if you’re funny with a great personality, that’s hard to beat.”

Currently, Hunt is wrapping up her master’s degree in sports management from the University of Kansas and the family business is beckoning the 23-year-old. Her father is Chiefs owner Clark Hunt.

Her future goal is to be the first woman to lead the NFL.

“There’s got to be a first female NFL commissioner at some point,” the pigskin princess said.

Gracie works in marketing and brand development for the Chiefs and will be in attendance at the NFL Draft slated for Kansas City in April.

“You hear about the war room and there really is a war room,” she said.

She spent her childhood on the Chiefs sideline but she told the magazine it was soccer that honed her competitive edge. Her dad’s Hunt Sports Group also owns FC Dallas in MLS.

“Soccer helped build my relationship with my dad. He was my first coach when I was little and those are sweet memories I’ll always cherish,” she told Maxim, adding that her college soccer career was derailed by four concussions.

Next came a stint in beauty pageants. This time it was her mother, Tavia, a Miss Kansas USA in 1993, who influenced her. In 2021, Gracie won Miss Kansas USA.

“I went from walking like a tomboy in my soccer cleats to gliding in six-inch pageant stilettos,” she said, adding that her parents had “agreed that none of their kids would do pageants.”

“My dad especially wanted us to participate in sports with scoreboards and finish lines and competitions that limit subjectivity.”

She added: “My mom ended up taking on a lot of the coaching for the pageant, so I had this wonderful dynamic where my dad was my soccer coach when I was young, and then when I began my pageant journey, my mom was an excellent resource.”

Gracie is also an accomplished marathon runner and is in training for the big enchilada, the Boston Marathon, that goes in April. She’ll be raising money for the Special Olympics.
