Kelce also expressed gratitude towards Mahomes for saving him from potentially embarrassing himself on such a grand stage.

The visit was done to honor and recognize the achievements of the Chiefs because of the team’s latest biggest achievement. It was an opportunity for the players and coaching staff to meet the President, tour the historic building, and partake in a commemorative photograph.
