Kansas City Chiefs likely future Hall of Fame tight end Travis Kelce had three words to say when reporters asked him this week how he felt about President Donald Trump’s decision to attend Super Bowl Super Bowl LIX.
Kelce spoke as he and the Chiefs look to “three-peat” — that is, win three Super Bowl championships in a row — against the NFC champ Philadelphia Eagles.
“It’s an honor,” he said of Trump’s presence at the game on Sunday, which will take place at the Caesars Superdome in New Orleans.
It will mark the first time a sitting president has attended the biggest NFL game of the year.
“That’s awesome. It’s a great honor,” Kelce said. “I think, you know, no matter who the president is, I know I’m excited because it’s the biggest game of my life, you know, and having the president there—it’s the best country in the world—and that’s pretty cool.
