Travis Kelce, star tight end of the Super Bowl champion Kansas City Chiefs, may have a good pair of hands, but they seem better for catching balls than throwing them.
He was invited to throw the first pitch at the Cleveland Guardians’ home opener against the Seattle Mariners, and that pitch was embarrassing.
Teammate Patrick Mahomes couldn’t stop laughing at Kelce’s bad pitch, and Kelce had a funny reaction.
lmao dude… shouldn’t have eaten that popcorn πΏπ¬

Kelce is a native of Westlake, Ohio, a suburb of Cleveland, which probably explains why he was chosen to throw out the first pitch at the Guardians game rather than the Kansas City Royals contest.
All told, he has every reason to hold his head high and his chest puffed up, as he is arguably the NFL’s best tight end ever, not to mention a two-time world champion.
He had arguably the best season of his career in 2022, collecting 1,338 yards and 12 touchdowns, and became Kansas City’s top pick after star wide receiver Tyreek Hill was traded to the Miami Dolphins last offseason.
In the Super Bowl, he went up against his brother Jason Kelce, a Pro Bowl and All-Pro first-team center for the Philadelphia Eagles, marking the first time two brothers from opposing teams played against each other in a major. Play.
With wideout JuJu Smith-Schuster now a member of the New England Patriots, Travis Kelce will have an even greater burden of producing big-time for the Chiefs next season.
