Travis Kelce threw a punch.
The 34-year-old Kansas City Chiefs tight end allegedly drove his teammates to tears with an impassioned speech before Super Bowl LVIII at Allegiant Stadium in Las Vegas.
According to NFL writer Albert Breer, Chiefs coach Andy Reid and players Patrick Mahomes and Chris Jones all provided motivational talks.
“Everything was great,” Breer remarked on X (previously Twitter).
“Kelce particularly so— ‘Unbelievable’ and ‘powerful,’ according to people in the room, to the point where some teammates were moved to tears.”Another coach called the athlete’s presentation “the best talk/speech I’ve ever heard.”
