Travis Kelce leads Chiefs locker room celebrations after reaching the Super Bowl as Patrick Mahomes and Andy Reid deliver a rallying cry to their Kansas City team: ‘We ain’t done yet!’
Travis Kelce led the epic locker room celebrations for the Kansas City Chiefs on Sunday night after another historic performance carried his team into the Super Bowl for yet another season.
Kelce scored an early touchdown in the 17-10 win over the Baltimore Ravens and overtook Jerry Rice by taking his 152nd postseason reception in the second quarter of the game – an all-time NFL record.
And after kissing girlfriend Taylor Swift on the field in the immediate post-game celebrations, Kelce took the party inside the Chiefs locker room.
The tight end was seen posing for pictures with his euphoric team, as they partied in the locker room after being crowned AFC Champions once again.
Coach Andy Reid addressed the team, saying: ‘Hey, in case you didn’t know, we are going to the Super Bowl. We are not finished. But in the meantime, enjoy this.’

Quarterback Patrick Mahomes followed his coach with the cheers growing rowdt, saying: ‘Like I’ve been saying, we ain’t done yet. Let me hear it on three – one, two, three, CHIEFS!’.
Chris Jones, defensive tackle for Chiefs, was puffing on a cigar in the locker room after the game. He secured a $1million bonus through his team reaching the Super Bowl.
Meanwhile Justin Reid took a moment to get a picture alongside Steve Spagnuolo, the defensive coordinator for the Chiefs who oversaw the masterplan that shackled Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson.
Reid also retweeted a tribute to Spagnuolo on X from former NFL player Ryan Clark, which said: ‘Steve Spagnuolo is the best big game defensive coordinator of our time!! Salute to him. He’s done it against the greatest, the best, and most dominant. He’s made them all look human, average, & amateur. He’s that dude. This defense was lights out!’
Reid and Jones were seen walking around the locker room wearing ‘In Spags We Trust’ t-shirts.
The man himself was humbled by the t-shirt, saying: ‘I’m so proud of the players, I’m so happy.
‘I was humbled and embarrassed (by the t-shirts) to be quite honest with you. But those guys had fun with it. Thank god we ended up doing well.’
Amid the celebrations, they also had the Detroit Lions vs. San Francisco 49ers playing on an iPad as they waited to find out who they would play next month in Vegas.

Mahomes repeated his rallying cry in a media conference after Sunday’s victory
And of course, all being well, Sunday’s celebrations will just be a footnote in the season with another Super Bowl now on the horizon.
Quarterback Patrick Mahomes told his team that the job is not done yet as he faced media questions while the celebrations were ongoing.
‘It’s been a heck of a year,’ Mahomes said. ‘We’ve been underdogs the last few games. We never feel like underdogs.
‘We’ve got a lot of guys on this team that know how to win. When the playoffs get around, they’re here to make it happen. And now we’re in the Super Bowl. The job’s not done.’
