Travis Kelce has a two-word nickname for the mother of his teammate and close friend, Patrick Mahomes.
The Kansas City Chiefs stars have been teammates since the latter was drafted in 2017. They have won three Super Bowls together, and their relationship extends off the field. They are considered to be best friends.
As such, their families are pretty close—so much so that Kelce has a nickname for his mother.
Randi Mahomes revealed as much after last week’s ESPYs.
Patrick was not in attendance, though he was nominated for multiple awards, so his mother represented him. She would bump into Travis at some point, and he would call her by the nickname he made up for her.

“Mama Mahomes, Mama Mahomes,” Randi told People Magazine.
Patrick’s mom told the publication that Kelce uses the name every time they meet each other.
“And he is such a ball of energy,” she added.
Travis Kelce’s Nickname For Randi Mahomes Makes Total Sense
Given that Travis Kelce and his brother Jason refer to their own mother, Donna Kelce, as “Mama Kelce,” this isn’t at all surprising and is right on brand.
There’s also the fact that the Chiefs offensive studs often refer to themselves as brothers, suggesting there’s a lot of warmth between their families.
As for the awards, Patrick Mahomes was selected as the Best NFL Player and Best Male Athlete on the back of another Super Bowl-winning season.
