Gracie Hunt, the daughter of the Kansas City Chiefs’ owner Clark Hunt, revealed on social media that she is in a relationship with ex-college football quarterback Cody Keith.
The 25-year-old granddaughter of Chiefs founder and Pro Football Hall of Famer Lamar Hunt and the great-granddaughter of oil tycoon H.L. Hunt made the reveal three days ago in a social media post from a Salvation Army event she and Cody Keith attended. (Keith’s brother-in-law is Webb Simpson, who won the 2012 U.S. Open.)
Gracie Hunt then confirmed the relationship with another post Sunday night at Mercedes-Benz Stadium in Atlanta with a couple of photos of Keith with his arm around her while down on the field.
Cody Keith works in Charlotte, North Carolina for his family’s commercial real estate company, The Keith Corporation (TKC).
According to his bio on the company’s website, “In his junior year of high school, the Keith family made the decision to uproot and move 2,400 miles west to Pasadena, California.
“After high school, Cody came back east to accept a full athletic football scholarship to East Carolina University where he graduated in 3 1/2 years with a Bachelor of Science degree.
“After college, Cody was offered numerous invitations to participate in NFL rookie mini-camps around the country. He chose to attend training camp with the Baltimore Ravens, Washington Redskins, and Indianapolis Colts.
“After his time in the NFL, he accepted a pre-season roster spot to play football in the Canadian Football League for the Hamilton Tiger-Cats. For the next 2 years Cody chased his dream of again playing football in the NFL. He was able to attend numerous other NFL/CFL training camps and one-on-one individual workouts to showcase his skill set in front of owners, general managers, offensive coordinators, and head coaches.
“He continues to maintain strong relationships with a plethora of NFL players and coaches. These relationships have driven business for The Keith Corporation in North Carolina, South Carolina, Virginia, New Mexico, California, and Connecticut.”
Cody Keith threw a total of 11 passes for 57 yards in one season while at East Carolina.
