Kansas City is led by some of the biggest stars in the game, such as quarterback Patrick Mahomes and tight end Travis Kelce.
The Chiefs also have incredible personnel backing them, including head coach Andy Reid and defensive coordinator Steve Spagnuolo.
Kelce, who is working through the offseason and preparing for his 13th season in the NFL, recently hosted Spagnuolo on his "New Heights" podcast alongside his brother, Jason Kelce.
While the three were discussing old stories and thoughts on their time in the NFL, Spagnuolo and Travis Kelce exchanged some kind words.
"I'm not saying this because you're sitting here, Trav," Spagnuolo said. "But, you're one of the purest, down-to-earth megastars that anybody could ever meet."

Travis Kelce then responded with a message to Spagnuolo, sharing high praise for the Kansas City coach.
"You're the best," Travis Kelce said. "That means the most coming from you, coach."
The conversation between Spagnuolo and Travis Kelce then prompted a strong response from the Chiefs.
"Never change Trav," posted the official social media account of the Kansas City Chiefs with a red heart emoji.
Travis Kelce has been with the Kansas City Chiefs since 2013.
During his time with the Chiefs, Kelce has helped lead the organization to three Super Bowl titles. In that span, the tight end has been named a four-time All-Pro and a 10-time Pro Bowler.

STANLEY CUP FINAL, GAME 4: Live updates, score, highlights The power couple first broke the internet in September 2023 when Swift accepted Kelce's invitation to watch him play at Arrowhead Stadium after he watched her rock the same stadium during her wildly popular "Eras Tour." She was prominently featured during FOX's game broadcast while sitting next to Kelce's mother Donna in a suite.
