Kelce: Not repeating would be 1 of 'the most sickening things'
Travis Kelce doesn't want to even think about what the Kansas City Chiefs are attempting to do: win back-to-back Super Bowls.
"I don't want to think about what it would feel like before it happens," the All-Pro tight end said on Super Bowl media day Monday, according to ESPN's Jenna Laine. "Because if it doesn't happen, man, it's gonna be one of the most sickening things that I've gone through.
"To make it to the big show - I've been watching NFL Films' recaps of previous Super Bowls and the stories that happened throughout those years for both of the teams and they were just kinda on replay yesterday - just going one after another after another. To see the guys that didn't make it, that didn't find a way to win - I hope that I never have that feeling ever come to life."
Kelce helped the Chiefs take down the San Francisco 49ers to win Super Bowl LIV last season. Kansas City is now looking to become the first team to repeat since the New England Patriots in 2003-2004.
But for the Chiefs' star tight end, the agony of defeat weighs more heavily on him than a potential victory.
"We put so much effort and so much thought and so much dream and vision and everything that gives into this week and last week - the two weeks going into the Super Bowl - that if it doesn't pan out for us, man, I don't even want to think about what that feeling would feel like," he said.
