Patrick MahomesandTravis Kelceare celebrating their Christmas game win with an extra sweet treat!

While Kelce proceeded to take a bite of the cake, his quarterback decided not to give it a taste.

“I’m watching my weight until playoffs, you know?” the quarterback says, laughing.

“More push-aways than pull-ins, that’s what Coach [Andy] Reid would say,” Kelce chimes in, as he continues to eat the cake.

As the three continue chatting, Dales asks Kelce how the cake tastes.

“Very red velvety,” Kelce replies. “It’s very spot on. It’s good. I’m gonna take this into the locker room and get some victory cake.”

Mahomes, however, had different plans for his cake. “Coach Reid’s ready for it, I’ll be taking it to him,” he says.
