“I am mad at them for heckling my mom in the stands. Yo mama jokes are cool, just when you say them to me, not my mom. Like when mom is leaving the stadium, she is getting heckled. That is like f*cking low blows, man,” Kelce said.

He also named two of his biggest rivalries in the NFL. “I would probably have to say the Broncos. The Broncos-Chiefs has always been huge in my head,” the Chiefs TE said when asked about his biggest rivals in the NFL. He also explained his reasons for it.

“It is probably because when I first got to the league, the Broncos were that team. Every single week we played them, in the building it was amped up. It was like alright we focus a little bit more, a little bit more is on the line for this one. And AFC West opponents, playing them twice a year. I just feel like that rivalry and the Raiders are the two biggest ones that I actually feel the rivalry and history whenever we play them.” Kelce said, naming his two biggest rivalries.
