That athleticism has paid off as their two year old daughter Sterling is showcasing her athletic abilities.
“I didn’t even have to prepare her. We never had taught her to play soccer, but she had watched soccer games with us just from going to the Kansas City Current games—and she literally started just kicking soccer balls into the goal. We never taught her how to kick, never taught her how to play. That’s just who she is.”
In an interview with Francesa Amiker of E! News, the Chiefs quarterback said that his daughter just began kicking a soccer ball on her own. He said that neither of them had shown her how to do so and she just began kicking th eball into the net.
