The Kansas City Chiefs and the rest of the football world will take a backseat today in honor of all Mothers on their special day.

During the recent episode of New Heights, the Kelce brothers were joined by their mother, Donna, to discuss various topics, including their college choices.

“I think people should go as far away as they possibly can; that’s my viewpoint. I think that you grow more when you are away from people that are with you all the time,” said Donna, “I think that if you are going to do the same thing and go to a college and have the same friends around you, you are never going to have any growth. You are never going to be able to be on your own and try to figure things out on your own. You are always going to have somebody there besides you to help you through all those decisions.”

Both brothers chose to stay close to home in Ohio by attending Cincinnati, a decision Travis also weighed in on, reflecting on his tenure.

“College is a decision you have to make for yourself. It is a selfish decision that you have to make for the future of whatever career or lane that you want to take in life,” said Travis. “Nobody should go to a school to follow somebody else, other than how I went to Cincinnati to go there because of Jason. I don’t think anybody should go to college to follow somebody else. I think they should go there for the values that they see are going to be best fitting for them.”
