Even Patrick Mahomes was taken aback to learn we’ve all apparently been saying Kansas City Chiefs teammate Travis Kelce’s last name incorrectly.
The six-time Pro Bowl tight end revealed on a Barstool Sports podcast his name is pronounced “kels” and not “kell-see.” That was news to Mahomes:

Andrew Clay of WTAJ noted the University of Cincinnati officially listed the incorrect pronunciation for how to say Kelce’s last name. The same was true for his brother, Jason, who was the first to suit up for the Bearcats:

The wild Kel-see/Kelse mixup roots back to 2007.
