He’s no dumb jock.
Patrick Mahomes praised Travis Kelce’s intelligence after the tight end’s girlfriend, Taylor Swift, made a jab at the tight end’s wit on her “The Tortured Poets Department” album.
“He puts on this persona, I’m partying, drinking, whatever, but he’s really super intelligent,” Mahomes, 28, said of his Kansas City Chiefs teammate on Thursday’s episode of Logan Paul’s “Impaulsive” podcast.

But Mahomes also admitted that Kelce is still a huge party boy, and these days, the quarterback “cannot” keep up.
“I used to, I think, and then I had kids,” Mahomes said.
The 15 and the Mahomies founder shares two kids — 3-year-old daughter Sterling and 1-year-old son Bronze — wife Brittany Mahomes.
Patrick also said that Travis’ older brother, Jason Kelce, has also toned down his party boy ways after becoming a dad.
“Jason has kids too, so he has to pick and choose, but when he chooses, he can go,” Patrick said of the former Philadelphia Eagles Center, who shares three daughters with wife Kylie Kelce.
Patrick addressed his close pal’s brainpower after Swift made a subtle dig at Kelce’s intellect in her new album, which dropped April 19.
“You know how to ball, I know Aristotle,” Swift sings in the track “So High School,” referencing the Greek philosopher.
