KANSAS City Chiefs star Travis Kelce has revealed he wanted to address the nation at the White House podium during the visit in honor of their Super Bowl title.
The NFL tight end didn’t get to speak during the reception because Patrick Mahomes dragged him away from the microphone in a moment that went viral on social media.

Travis got asked about the hilarious situation by his brother, Jason, in the new episode of their New Heights videocast.
And the Chiefs tight end said he wanted to use the phrase US presidents typically say at the beginning of their public addresses.
“Obviously, the president at the podium – it’s iconic, right?” he said.
“And how he usually addresses the nation: ‘To my fellow Americans.’
“That’s all I wanted to say, dude. That’s it.”
The Kelce brothers also shared a laugh when Jason pointed out how craftily Travis made his way to the podium.
The Philadelphia Eagles center joked he purposefully handed President Joe Biden a No. 46 Chiefs jersey first to distract him and clear the way toward the center of the stage.
Travis then said he was thankful that Mahomes foiled his plan, preventing him from embarrassing himself.
The NFL star added the alarm bells probably rang in the Chiefs quarterback’s head when he approached the podium saying: “I’ve always wanted to do this.”
Travis does have a history of making public announcements that cause a stir.
After Kansas City beat the Cincinnati Bengals in the 2023 AFC championship game, the tight end memorably called out Cincinnati mayor Aftab Pureval for trash-talking the Chiefs.
“Hey, I’ve got some wise words for that Cincinnati mayor,” he said with the trophy in his hands.
“Know your role and shut your mouth, you jabroni!” he added.
