The Kansas City Chiefs tight end, 34, reportedly moved his teammates to tears with an emotional speech ahead of Super Bowl LVIII at Allegiant Stadium in Las Vegas.
According to NFL reporter Albert Breer, Chiefs coach Andy Reid and players Patrick Mahomes and Chris Jones also gave pep talks.
“Kelce particularly so— ‘Unbelievable’ and ‘powerful,’ according to people in the room, to the point where some teammates were moved to tears.”
Another coach described the athlete’s address as “the best talk/speech I’ve ever heard.”
The Kansas City Chiefs are vying to become the first team to win back-to-back Vince Lombardi trophies in 20 years, while their opponents — the San Francisco 49ers —are looking to end a 30-year drought.
