“Kelce has so much aura,” the first-year cornerback said of the three-time Super Bowl champion in an Instagram clip while watching the play happen in real time. “He got so much aura, bro. Kelce has so much aura, like if I had a son, I want him to be just like [Kelce].”
Mahomes completed a short pass to the Chiefs tight end, who rumbled down the field, rolling down at the Chargers’ 20-yard line for a 24-yard gain. The Arrowhead Stadium fans went wild, including Kelce’s wife, Taylor Swift, who hugged singer Este Haim while celebrating the play.
