The rivalry between the Cincinnati Bengals and Kansas City Chiefs is simply the gift that keeps on giving.
NFL fans loved the beef between the two sides recently after Ja’Marr Chase made a funny remark about Patrick Mahomes. And Mahomes later took the time to respond while flexing his two Super Bowl rings.
Now? Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce has thrown his weight into the back-and-forth during an episode of the “New Heights” podcast.
“I thought it was a little bold,” Travis Kelce said. “(Mahomes is) a two-time league MVP, two-time Super Bowl MVP. To say ‘Pat who’ is like…“It is what it is, dog. Who doesn’t love some good locker room banter, man? Shoutout to Ja’Marr Chase for holding it down for his QB, but don’t you ever disrespect Pat Mahomes now. If you want to talk your (expletive), talk your (expletive), pimp. Just better back it up.”
It feels like this whole ordeal is just guys having fun with some banter, though outside onlookers know the rivalry between the Bengals and Chiefs has quickly blossomed into one of the NFL’s best.
Chase, Kelce and both teams get together once again in Week 17 next season for a December 31st showdown.
🗣 DON'T DISRESPECT PAT MAHOMES
