Mahomes and Matthews were high school sweethearts. Matthews has been a prominent fixture alongside Mahomes during his meteoric rise to the top of the NFL. Now the two are getting hitched.

“You wear it for special occasions,” Reid told reporters prior to the ceremony. “Or if you want a free cheeseburger, you just point right there and show them the ring and you might get one.”
