Travis Kelce Hilariously Mocks Patrick Mahomes With Spot-On Impersonation in Brazil

The Kansas City Chiefs have kicked off their 2025 NFL season with a dose of humor and camaraderie, as tight end Travis Kelce poked fun at quarterback Patrick Mahomes during a press conference in São Paulo, Brazil. The playful exchange comes as the Chiefs prepare for their highly anticipated divisional matchup against the Los Angeles Chargers, marking their first game since their Super Bowl 59 loss in February.

Mahomes Jokes About Kelce’s Geography Skills

Earlier this week, Mahomes told reporters that he had to give Kelce a crash course in geography ahead of the Chiefs’ international trip. “Even though he was just down there last year, I was explaining to him how the globe works,” Mahomes said, teasing his teammate for not knowing exactly where Brazil was on the map.

Kelce Responds With a Hilarious Impression

Never one to let a joke slide, Kelce fired back during Thursday’s press conference in Brazil. When asked about the Chiefs’ warm reception upon arrival, Kelce slipped into an impression of Mahomes’ distinctive voice:

“Oh, man, it was crazy. It was a lot of fun seeing all the fans there.”

Kelce then reverted to his normal voice, grinning as he added, “He had that one coming for telling everybody I didn’t know where Brazil was on the map.” The lighthearted banter between the two stars underscores the strong chemistry that has helped make the Chiefs one of the NFL’s top teams in recent years.

Chiefs Set for Historic Matchup in Brazil

Friday night’s game against the Chargers will be only the second regular-season NFL game ever played in Brazil, following last year’s Week 1 clash between the Green Bay Packers and the eventual Super Bowl champion Philadelphia Eagles. The Chiefs are eager to bounce back from their Super Bowl loss and start the new season strong on an international stage.

YouTube holds exclusive broadcast rights for the game, offering fans around the world the opportunity to stream the matchup online for free—a move that signals the NFL’s growing commitment to expanding its global reach.

Kelce’s First Game Since Engagement Announcement

Adding to the intrigue, this game marks Kelce’s first appearance since announcing his engagement to pop superstar Taylor Swift in late August. The couple’s relationship has been a major storyline both on and off the field, and speculation is swirling about whether Swift will be present in São Paulo to cheer on her fiancé. As of now, her attendance remains uncertain.

Looking Ahead

As the Chiefs take the field for their season opener in Brazil, the playful dynamic between Kelce and Mahomes sets a positive tone for the year ahead. Their camaraderie, combined with the excitement of international play and off-field headlines, ensures that all eyes will be on Kansas City as they pursue another run at the championship.

Whether it’s geography lessons, celebrity engagements, or gridiron glory, the Chiefs continue to capture the spotlight—both at home and abroad.
