Jason Kelce Left Stunned by Patrick Mahomes’ Trick Pass to Travis Kelce in Preseason Game
Like many NFL fans, Jason Kelce was left in awe by Patrick Mahomes’ audacious behind-the-back pass to Travis Kelce in a preseason game against the Detroit Lions.
The Chiefs quarterback pulled off the trick pass on the second drive of the game, catching the Lions defense off guard and resulting in a 9-yard gain and a first down. The play ultimately led to a field goal.
Jason Kelce, Travis’ older brother, took to social media to express his amazement, saying “This son of a gun actually did it!! Magic Mahomes.” He later joked that if Mahomes starts throwing behind-the-back passes every time Travis runs the wrong route, it could be the most exciting year of football yet.
