LOS ANGELES — Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce recently told TMZ he can’t wait to visit the White House.

“Grew up my whole life watching teams win championships and then go to the White House and get recognized for their greatness… ” Kelce tweeted Thursday following up on the story.

Kelce didn’t get political in his tweet, just simply expressed his excitement for the anticipated trip. 

“Regardless of who is in office, I think it’s a unique opportunity to experience our nations Capital,” he ended his tweet.

When asked if he’d visit, Andy Reid previously told reporters, “If they’re inviting us, I’ll be there. It’s quite an honor.”

President Trump added, “the coach loves us, the coach is great,” referring to Reid.
