Chiefs’ Travis Kelce admits to distracting Biden for podium moment, reveals what he really wanted to say
Patrick Mahomes is a two-time Super Bowl champion quarterback, but the reigning league MVP did a pretty good job at playing secondary when he intercepted tight end Travis Kelce from giving an unplanned speech during the Kansas City Chiefs visit to the White House on Monday.
During an episode of the “New Heights” podcast on Thursday, Philadelphia Eagles center Jason Kelce called out his brother’s apparently obvious move in trying to distract President Biden so he could say something at the president’s podium.

After posing for a picture with Biden and Mahomes, a White House staffer can be heard suggesting that they next pose for a group picture. That was when Kelce can be heard saying: “Stay right there, though,” as he walks over to the podium.
Mahomes, however, was quick to act.
Pat knew right away when you pointed, he was like ‘There ain’t nothing over there. This is a flanking move if I know – I know Travis and he’s a flanker,’” Jason said.
