Fans reacted on social media to Patrick Mahomes and Travis Kelce's latest clip.

Patrick Mahomes, Travis Kelce Connection Draws Attention at Training Camp originally appeared on Athlon Sports.

The Kansas City Chiefs are just days away from their first preseason game set for Aug. 9 against the Arizona Cardinals. For over a week, they’ve been grinding on the practice field at training camp, preparing for another Super Bowl run.

Last season ended in heartbreak — a 40–22 loss to the Philadelphia Eagles with a historic three-peat on the line. But Patrick Mahomes and Travis Kelce have fully turned the page to the 2025 NFL season now.

At Wednesday’s practice, the two were filmed connecting on a touchdown pass during an 11-on-11 drill. Mahomes dropped back and found an open Kelce across the middle, with linebacker Cooper McDonald trailing. Kelce walked into the end zone with ease — something Chiefs fans are more than used to seeing.

Even the Chiefs' social media team felt that way with its caption.

"Stop us if you've heard this before, but... Mahomes to Kelce for 6," the Chiefs wrote.

The clip drew plenty of attention from fans.

"Chiefs winning Super Bowl this year man," one fan said.

"Looking good," another wrote.

"never gets old," added another.

"From 15 to 87, never fails!" said a fan.

"oh i am so ready for football season," one added.

"just perfect," a fan said.

Mahomes and Kelce have been teammates since the Chiefs drafted Mahomes in 2017. Since then, they’ve become arguably the greatest quarterback–tight end duo in NFL history, with Kelce recording 686 receptions for 8,126 yards and 56 touchdowns from Mahomes.

Together, they have won three Super Bowls and have been selected to a combined 16 Pro Bowls.
