Kelce’s Locker Room Banter With Young Teammates Gets a Side-Eye From Patrick Mahomes…See More

In Andy Reid’s own words, Travis Kelce is one of the team’s core leaders – a voice that keeps the Kansas City Chiefs connected through lighthearted conversations during practice. As one of the veterans in the locker room, Kelce often sparks chatter to bridge the gap with younger players. But sometimes, the topics he chooses leave even his closest teammates shaking their heads.

That was exactly the case when Patrick Mahomes couldn’t help but laugh after hearing what Kelce decided to bring up with linebacker Leo Chenal. What started as a genuine attempt at bonding quickly spiraled into one of the funniest moments of camp.

Kelce kicked things off by asking Chenal about his offseason plans. The Wisconsin native shared that he spent time back home with family – and that’s when Kelce’s curiosity took a sharp turn. Out of nowhere, the tight end dropped a question about cheese curds, the fried Midwest delicacy. It might have seemed random, but for Chenal, it was the perfect icebreaker to talk proudly about his roots.

As Chenal passionately vouched for Wisconsin’s famous snack, Mahomes watched the scene unfold and couldn’t resist poking fun at his best friend. His sarcastic laughter made it clear: only Kelce could turn a casual training camp chat into a debate about deep-fried cheese.
