Patrick Mahomes Throws Shade at Travis Kelce Over Vintage Social Media Post — Chiefs’ Teammate Roast Goes Viral

KANSAS CITY, MO — The Kansas City Chiefs, led by Patrick Mahomes, Travis Kelce, Andy Reid, and rising star Xavier Worthy, are once again preparing to dominate the AFC West and make a strong push for the Conference Championship. After narrowly missing the chance to become the first franchise to win three consecutive Super Bowls—falling to the Philadelphia Eagles in Super Bowl LIX—the Chiefs remain one of the league’s most formidable teams.

Chiefs Eye Another Shot at Dynasty Status

Despite last season’s heartbreak, the Chiefs’ roster is stacked with talent and experience, making them perennial contenders. While rivals like the Baltimore Ravens, Buffalo Bills, Cincinnati Bengals, and Houston Texans have all made significant improvements, none have managed to dethrone Mahomes and the Chiefs when it matters most.

Mahomes Roasts Kelce in Lighthearted Team Segment

During a recent team segment organized by the Chiefs’ social media crew, players were challenged to guess which teammate had posted certain comments online. When presented with the phrase, “Too turnt to look back now,” Mahomes initially struggled to identify its author.

Upon learning that the post was written by none other than Travis Kelce, Mahomes seized the moment to poke fun at his longtime friend and favorite target, joking that Kelce was “far too old” to be posting something like that. The good-natured jab sparked laughter among teammates and showcased the camaraderie that has helped fuel the Chiefs’ sustained success.

Kelce, now 35, is returning for his 13th season in Kansas City, opting not to retire after last year’s Super Bowl defeat. His passion for the game—and moments like these with Mahomes—continue to inspire Chiefs fans and teammates alike.

Chiefs’ Key Players Poised to Step Up

Kansas City’s roster boasts seven players who made ESPN’s annual positional rankings, underscoring the team’s depth and star power. These leaders will be crucial in the Chiefs’ quest for another championship run:

– Patrick Mahomes (Quarterback)
– Creed Humphrey (Interior Offensive Line)
– Trey Smith (Offensive Line)
– Chris Jones (Defensive Tackle)
– Trent McDuffie (Cornerback)
– Nick Bolton (Linebacker)
– Travis Kelce (Tight End)

Additionally, defensive end George Karlaftis earned an honorable mention in the edge-rusher rankings, further highlighting the team’s defensive prowess.

Kelce Remains a Red Zone Threat

Despite his age, Kelce continues to be one of the NFL’s most dangerous red zone targets. Last season, he turned 26 red zone targets into 19 catches for 106 yards and three touchdowns, leading the Chiefs in total targets with 133. As one NFC executive noted:

“Kelce is still dangerous in the red zone. He might not look as exotic as he used to, but you still look up and he’s got nine for 70. He’s still awesome.”

Looking Ahead

With Mahomes at the helm, Kelce anchoring the offense, and a roster loaded with talent, the Chiefs are well-positioned to contend for another Super Bowl. Their chemistry, leadership, and competitive spirit—evident in both serious and playful moments—make them a team to watch as the new season approaches.
