JUST IN:Travis Kelce’s Four-Word Rally Cry to Patrick Mahomes Before Super Bowl
…see more
Patrick Mahomes and Travis Kelce have become one of the best offensive duos the NFL has ever seen.

Since Mahomes joined the team with the No. 10 pick in the 2017 NFL draft, the Kansas City Chiefs have never missed the playoffs every season. Although the former Texas Tech quarterback didn’t start in his rookie season, Kelce had already made a name for himself (three Pro Bowls) with Alex Smith behind center.

Despite making the playoffs multiple times with Smith and Kelce, Mahomes seemed to be a real difference maker, taking the Chiefs to the AFC Championship Game every season since he became the starter in 2018.

Now, Kansas City will play in its fifth Super Bowl in six seasons, facing the Philadelphia Eagles in Super Bowl LIX. They are also chasing the first-ever three-peat.

Mahomes knows what’s on the line, and on Saturday, he made a hype post on Instagram using a video of himself pumping up the crowd and the caption, “⏰.” He also included music from Kendrick Lamar, who will be performing in the Super Bowl halftime show.

Kelce is ready for the big game as well, sending a four-word rallying cry to his partner in crime.

“😤😤😤 LETS GET IT CUHHHH,” Kelce replied.

Both Mahomes and Kelce had down regular seasons, for their standards, despite a 15-2 record. Kelce had his worst statistical season since 2015 but still made the Pro Bowl. And Mahomes, the two-time NFL MVP, did not make the Pro Bowl for the first time since his rookie season.

But the two experienced veterans have turned it up in the playoffs. Through two games, Mahomes has completed 34-of-51 passes for 422 yards, two touchdowns and zero interceptions while adding 57 yards and another two scores on the ground. Kelce has notched nine catches for 136 yards and a touchdown.

Mahomes, Kelce and the Chiefs will take on Jalen Hurts and the Eagles in Super Bowl LIX on Sunday at 6:30 p.m. ET. The game will be at the Superdome in New Orleans, Louisiana, for the first time since the 2012 season, when the lights famously went out in the San Francisco 49ers vs. Baltimore Ravens Super Bowl.
