on Tuesday to discuss everything from life after retirement to his brother Travis’s relationship with pop star Taylor Swift. Football fans may be more interested in what Kelce had to say about his brother’s relationship with quarterback Patrick Mahomes on the field, though.
Kelce was asked what he thought was special about the Chiefs quarterback and gave an extremely thoughtful answer. “What is so good about Pat, and I think what is so good about probably Pat and Travis, is that they both operate within structure, but they still somehow keep that instinctual, creative mindset,” Kelce said . “For a defense, how do you prepare for that? We know this play is coming, we think this play is coming out of this formation, and it is that play, and we got the perfect thing called.
Jason also elaborated on the “two buckets” of quarterbacks in the league, contrasting the analytical, before-the-snap organized type like Peyton Manning with the instinctual, “off-the-cuff” player like Michael Vick. To Kelce, Mahomes can operate in both those realms, and that unique talent makes him one of the most dangerous menaces to any given defense.
