While the Kansas City Chiefs<\/a> bounced back to winning ways with a victory in the latest Chiefs vs. Lions game, it was Travis Kelce<\/a> who stole the show with his on-field performance, and later, with a hilarious Mic\u2019d Up moment mentioning Hakeem Olajuwon. He not only pitched in with six receptions for 78 yards, leading the Chiefs to their third win of the season, but also entertained fans with his off-field antics.<\/p>\n

Travis Kelce says the Lions didn\u2019t want to see him \u2018in the post\u2019 during Chiefs\u2019 win<\/p>\n

While heading towards the sidelines in the Kansas City Chiefs\u2019 30-17 victory against the Detroit Lions<\/a>, the 36-year-old tight end was heard comparing himself to NBA legend Hakeem Olajuwon while describing his play in the first quarter.<\/p>\n

\u201cThey don\u2019t want to see me in the post, man, they don\u2019t want to see me in the post,\u201d Travis Kelce stated, as per NFL Mic\u2019d Up<\/a>. \u201cHit they a** with the Hakeem the Dream,\u201d he added, before he began narrating his experience witnessing Houston Rockets alum duke it out on the court to one of his younger teammates.<\/p>\n

\u201cSee, you wasn\u2019t even a part of the \u201990s. You would\u2019ve saw\u00a0Hakeem Olajuwon\u00a0hit them with that dream shake. You gotta do your research\u2026 I grew up watching that, so I emulated that. Shoutout to the Dream,\u201d the three-time Super Bowl Champion noted. For the unversed, Olajuwon\u2019s nickname was \u201cThe Dream,\u201d due to his effortless dunking skills.<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, fans seemed to have thoroughly enjoyed Kelce\u2019s remarks, with one fan hilariously writing<\/a>, \u201cBro turned into a history teacher mid-game,\u201d in the comment section. <\/p>\n

Another X (formerly Twitter) user<\/a> highlighted the amusing yet friendly encounter between Kelce and his NFL junior, noting, \u201cAwesome! Seeing Travis Kelce pass on the wisdom of Hakeem Olajuwon to young players is really the power of inheritance. This is the perfect combination of experience and talent, love it!\u201d Moreover, a few other fans cleverly responded by using \u201cimpressed\u201d Taylor Swift GIFs<\/a> in their replies.<\/p>\n

Having leveled their record for the season with the win against the Lions, the Chiefs and Travis Kelce will look to extend it to 4-3 with yet another victory in their upcoming NFL matchup against the Las Vegas Raiders.<\/p>\n
