In January, Timberlake and Jimmy Fallon shared a story on The Tonight Show about an afternoon they spent with Kelce, revealing that Timberlake took a tumble when they all attended a Las Vegas golf tournament.

After Fallon scored an impressive shot, Timberlake ran around the course and was picked up by Kelce for a hug. “Does that video keep going?” Timberlake asked. “Because Travis Kelce almost — I saw my life flash before my eyes.””He went up and did one of those [side body bumps], you know, when they jump,” said Timberlake. “And I was like, ‘He’s doing it. I have to do it.’ And I forgot that he weighs like 80 lbs. more than me.”

“You basically got tackled,” the SNL alum added, playing the video of the moment for the audience, which showed Kelce jumping to bump into Timberlake and then knocking him to the ground, sending his legs back over his head.

“[People were like,] ‘What happened to you?’ Travis Kelce,” Timberlake said. “He’s the best, by the way. [One of the] nicest guys ever.”
