Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce has taken his fair share of jabs at his brother, Philadelphia Eagles center Jason Kelce, for beating his team in Super Bowl LVII earlier this year.
So kudos to Jason for being the brunt of the joke yet again when he did an advertisement recently with Travis and their mother, Donna Kelce, for Campbell’s soup.
In the commercial, Travis and Jason are sitting next to each other when Travis receives a phone call. Travis’ ringtone is a song with the lyrics, “Champion, Travis Kelce is a champion, twice!”
Jason is clearly not happy with the ringtone, and Donna tries to smooth things over with a bowl of Campbell’s soup for Jason. Yet she is wearing Travis’ Chiefs jersey as she serves Jason the soup.
Please tell me y’all seen this new commercial with @tkelce @JasonKelce and @dkelce1 omg hahahahaha
The advertisement is not only hilarious but shows just how good a sport Jason Kelce is after one of the toughest losses of his Hall of Fame career.
Being paid to be a good sport probably lightened the mood for the commercial, though.
Patrick Mahomes Voted Out of Script in New NFL Ad
The NFL decided to lean into the narrative that the league is scripted when they put together the “You Can’t Make This Stuff Up” advertisement for the 2023 season.
In the advertisement, actor and comedian Keegan-Michael Key is leading a panel of scriptwriters to determine how the 2023 season will play out. Some of the scriptwriters include Minnesota Vikings quarterback Kirk Cousins, Chicago Bears quarterback Justin Fields, Cincinnati Bengals receiver Ja’Marr Chase, Seattle Seahawks receiver DK Metcalf, and Miami Dolphins cornerback Jalen Ramsay.
Among the ideas brought to the table by the scriptwriters was the idea to write Chiefs superstar quarterback Patrick Mahomes off the script entirely for the 2023 season. Many of the writers agreed to that idea until Mahomes chimed in via a video call to ask whose idea it was. After Key tells Mahomes he needs to act more like an actor, Mahomes calls the idea of him being written off the script “boring.”
