Brad Pitt Tells Travis Kelce His Favorite NFL Team Without Hesitation

Travis Kelce and the Kansas City Chiefs are one of the most successful NFL teams of the past decade, so it's no surprise that plenty of celebrities also follow and support them.

Among the many known supporters of the Chiefs are Paul Rudd, Jason Sudeikis and Henry Cavill. WNBA superstar Caitlin Clark has also revealed before that she is a huge fan of the Kansas City franchise, noting that she has been a fan of the team ever since she was a child.

Of course, there's also Taylor Swift, who has been all-out in her support of the Chiefs ever since she started dating Kelce in 2023.

On Wednesday, another Chiefs fan made his NFL allegiance known while appearing on the "New Heights" podcast of Travis Kelce and Jason Kelce.

Hollywood actor Brad Pitt, who starred in the movie "F1," joined the podcast of the Kelce brothers and discussed a variety of topics — including his love for sports movies. During the discussion, Pitt opened up about how much he loves the Chiefs, having grown up in Missouri.

"I love the Eagles-Chiefs rivalry," Pitt stated, before saying, "You know I'm a Chiefs [fan]. I'm a Missouri boy."

Travis Kelce, for his part, was happy to hear Pitt's admission and even sent a bold message to the "Moneyball" actor. The Chiefs TE promised Pitt that he and the team would do better in the 2025 season after they let him down in New Orleans.

It remains to be seen how far Kelce and the Chiefs will go in the upcoming season. Their 2024 campaign ended in heartbreak after losing to the Philadelphia Eagles in the Super Bowl back in February.

Making matters worse, the loss cost them what would have been the first-ever Super Bowl three-peat.

That being said, Pitt and the rest of the Kansas City faithful will certainly be watching with hopeful eyes as the Chiefs aim to reclaim their Super Bowl glory.
