Travis Kelce celebrated the Chiefs' win with a hilarious impression of Patrick Mahomes.
After the Kansas City team narrowly defeated the Indianapolis Colts 23-20 on Sunday, Nov. 23, the superstar tight end, 35, broke out his impression of the quarterback, 30.
When asked about how Mahomes led the team to a win in overtime, Kelce, impersonating Mahomes, said, "Ah, man, you just believe, you just believe every snap," before laughing with reporters, as seen in a video on X.
After doing the impression, Kelce praised his close friend for being a "leader" for their team.
"It's the best, man, he's our fearless leader," Kelce said.

"That guy is the most competitive human being I know," Kelce continued, "and we love him for how he leads this team both on the field in practice throughout the week and right now, man."
Kelce concluded, "He's leading us into victory, man. It's the best."
The Chiefs sent the game into overtime on Sunday with a field goal kick at the end of regulation. Kicker Harrison Butker then won them the game in overtime with another successful field goal, coming back from a 20-9 deficit in the fourth quarter.
According to USA Today, the Chiefs’ chances of making the playoffs increased to 58% with Sunday’s win, while a loss would’ve dropped their odds to 29% with just six games left in the season.
After the game, Travis' dad Ed Kelce called out people questioning his son's ability.
“If anyone questions how good Travis is playing; through week 10 he leads all tight ends in total yardage,” Ed, 56, wrote on Instagram alongside a photo of Travis spiking a football following one of his four touchdowns this season.
Two days before their win over the Colts, reporters asked Kelce if he had any new thoughts on retiring once his contract expires next season.
The tight end said he won't be making any decisions until the offseason, but noted he also wants to give the Chiefs a "good opportunity to know whether I come back or not, and vice versa."
"Like, whether they want me back or not, it's one of those things where I'd like to make that decision before they've got to get draft picks and free agency opens up. So, all of that will be at the end of the season and I won't be thinking about it until then," Kelce said.
