CHARLOTTE, N.C. — Patrick Mahomes’ fiancée Brittany Matthews is finding herself playing defense after being criticized for how she celebrated the Kansas City Chiefs playoff win.

Matthews shared the moment on Twitter where she’s seen spraying the crowd with champagne.

After receiving a lot of backlash she initially returned fire by tweeting Monday she was tired of routinely being “attacked.”

After talking to a local t-shirt designer, Matthews is now responding by selling “Team Brittany” shirts.

The proceeds of the shirt will go to Red Card KC, a charity that works to prevent bullying.
