Chiefs RB Kareem Hunt was mic’d up for Kansas City’s Week 10 win over the Broncos

#Chiefs RB Kareem Hunt gave an inspired mic’d up performance in Kansas City’s Week 10 win over the Denver #Broncos.

The Kansas City Chiefs have relied on Kareem Hunt to set the tone for their offense in recent weeks, and the veteran running back hasn’t disappointed.

Hunt led Kansas City in receiving and rushing yards against the Denver Broncos in Week 10, and figures to play a key role in the Chiefs’ strategy for the Buffalo Bills on Sunday.

As it turns out, Hunt was mic’d up for Kansas City’s win over Denver, and his rousing performance was one that Chiefs fans won’t want to miss.

Check out this video of Hunt’s hot-mic antics, which was posted to Twitter this week:

 

Clearly, Kansas City’s coaching staff and social media team can count on Hunt to deliver when it matters most, especially when facing a divisional rival like the Broncos.

Expect the former Toledo Rocket to be a key contributor for the Chiefs in their next game against the Bills in Week 11 as Kansas City looks to keep its perfect season alive.

Patrick Mahomes delivered inspiring mic’d up performance vs. Buccaneers

#Chiefs QB Patrick Mahomes was mic’d up for Kansas City’s Week 9 win over the Tampa Bay #Buccaneers.

The Kansas City Chiefs are heading into a Week 10 matchup against the Denver Broncos as the NFL’s only undefeated team, and their latest victory was one for the ages.

In Week 9, Kansas City narrowly escaped Arrowhead Stadium with its ninth win of the regular season when the Chiefs faced the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in a Super Bowl LV rematch.

Veteran running back Kareem Hunt scored the decisive touchdown in Kansas City’s overtime victory, but it was Patrick Mahomes’ inspiring performance that kept the Chiefs in contention late in the game.

As it turns out, Mahomes was mic’d up for Kansas City’s matchup against Tampa Bay and a video of his on-field interactions was shared by the Chiefs’ official Twitter account:

 

Stay tuned to see if the reigning Super Bowl MVP can replicate his outstanding showing against the Buccaneers when Kansas City plays Denver on November 10.

Mic’d-up video showed what Patrick Mahomes said when Andy Reid wanted to take him out after injury scare

Mahomes was not backing down.

Chiefs fans collectively held their breath on Monday night when Patrick Mahomes planted awkwardly and needed assistance off the field against the Buccaneers.

In the immediate aftermath of the injury, the worst-case scenarios were flowing: Achilles, ACL, high ankle sprain. There was concern for what was ultimately just a rolled ankle. And even Chiefs head coach Andy Reid was ready to err on the side of caution and sit Mahomes out for the rest of the game.

The three-time Super Bowl winning quarterback was having none of that.

After Mahomes left the field, he quickly started to loosen up that ankle — which he had rolled the previous game — and was fine to stay in the game. NFL Films captured the mic’d-up exchange when Reid tried to take Mahomes out, and we know how that went.

Mahomes defiantly refused to leave the game and told Reid, “I’m good. I’m good.”

That conversation looked awfully familiar from when Reid tried to take Mahomes out amid an ankle sprain during their 2023 Super Bowl run.

It worked out well for the Chiefs both times — that’s for sure.

Mic’d-up video captured the postgame message that Travis Kelce had for George Kittle after Chiefs win

They’re ready to run it back.

The Kansas City Chiefs are the NFL’s lone undefeated team despite not necessarily looking like a dominant team. The San Francisco 49ers are still NFC West contenders all while dealing with tons of injuries to key players.

That in itself had Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce thinking about a potential rematch in New Orleans.

Following the Chiefs’ Week 7 win over the 49ers to improve to 6-0 on the season, mic’d-up footage from NFL Films showed the exchange that Kelce had with 49ers tight end (and his friend) George Kittle. Kelce told Kittle that he’d love to run into the 49ers again in February — at the Super Bowl.

“Let’s do it again in February, bro,” Kelce said.

Kittle was down for it and was also a fan of Kelce’s cleats.

We’ll have to see if the two teams really do run it back, but the Chiefs have to like their chances.

Myles Garrett and Malik Nabers had the classiest mic’d-up exchange after the rookie’s acrobatic TD catch

This was so wholesome.

Malik Nabers didn’t find himself in the easiest situation as a top-10 pick in New York who has Daniel Jones as his quarterback. But through three games, the rookie receiver from LSU has lived up to the billing — and exceeded the loftiest expectations.

Even his opponents are showing respect in the middle of a game.

Nabers followed up his monster Week 2 performance with a two-touchdown game in Week 3 against the Browns. That effort included an acrobatic, spinning catch where Nabers was somehow able to get both feet in bounds. You don’t see many receivers — much less a rookie — make that catch. So, Browns star Myles Garrett had to give Nabers some credit during the game.

In a mic’d-up exchange from NFL Films, we could hear as Garrett said:

“Malik! You’re a bad boy. Keep doing your thing.”

Nabers responded, “Appreciate it. You too, sir.”

He’s out there calling opponents, “Sir!” You just know Nabers is about to become a favorite among NFL players.

Chiefs LB Nick Bolton was mic’d up during crucial play vs. Ravens

Check out this video of #Chiefs LB Nick Bolton mic’d up during Kansas City’s win over the Baltimore #Ravens last week.

Kansas City Chiefs linebacker Nick Bolton has already been part of two Super Bowl victories in his career and will help his team in its effort to win a third consecutive championship this season.

A 2021 draft pick from Missouri, Bolton has been productive with the Chiefs, logging 359 combined tackles and 2 sacks since his start in the NFL.

One of the most impactful players on Kansas City’s defense, the standout linebacker was mic’d up when he made another tackle in a key moment against the Baltimore Ravens last week.

Check out this video of Bolton hyping himself up for a huge play in the red zone that could have led to a Ravens score and threatened the Chiefs’ chances at victory.

At the end of the play, Bolton exclaims “That’s game!” which is something Kansas City’s fans can look forward to hearing in the future as the Chiefs continue working towards their ultimate goal of a Super Bowl three-peat.

The season continues for Kansas City on Sunday when the Chiefs play the Cincinnati Bengals in Week 2 action.

Chiefs share Travis Kelce mic’d up supercut video from training camp

Check out some of Travis Kelce’s best mic’d up moments from #Chiefs training camp.

Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce seems to relish any time he gets on camera, whether in Hollywood or at practices during training camp.

While his meteoric rise to stardom off the football field was a key storyline during the 2024 offseason, his hilarious antics weren’t reserved for the silver screen when the Chiefs took the field in St. Joseph earlier this month.

Although Kelce and Patrick Mahomes are quite an entertaining pairing, the All-Pro pass-catcher proved that he could steal the show during a mic’d up recording at Missouri Western State University.

Check out Kelce’s greatest hits from this summer’s practice condensed into a two-minute highlight clip, which was posted to the Chiefs’ official Twitter account:

Kelce didn’t take the field in Kansas City’s preseason finale against the Chicago Bears but fans can expect to see him back in action when the Chiefs face the Baltimore Ravens on September 5.

WATCH: Carl Granderson mic’d up at Saints training camp practice

Carl Granderson was mic’d up at New Orleans Saints training camp practice. Here’s a day of work from his point of view:

Carl Granderson was mic’d up at New Orleans Saints training camp practice. Here’s a day of work from his point of view, which you can watch here. He’s the latest defender to wear a microphone into practice after other guys like Alontae Taylor and Willie Gay Jr. did so. Playmakers on offense like Rashid Shaheed and Cesar Ruiz have also given us a glimpse at practice from their perspectives.

Granderson is going to be a big player for the team again this year. He’s steadily climbed the depth chart to lead the Saints in snaps played at defensive end last season, logging 103 more reps than Cameron Jordan did. Expect Granderson and big-time free agent acquisition Chase Young to take point on passing downs.

Just how great can Granderson be? The former undrafted free agent has come a long way, and he’s coming off new career-highs in sacks (8.5) and tackles for loss (14). His 58 quarterback pressures were tied for 24th-most at Pro Football Focus, behind Young’s 66 (17th) and ahead of Jordan’s 45 (44th). He’s put in the work to become the future at defensive end for the Saints. All he has to do next is follow through and meet his own standards.

Travis Kelce coins new catchphrase in mic’d up video from Chiefs training camp

Travis Kelce was caught trying out a new catchphrase in this mic’d up video from #Chiefs training camp.

Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce is known for his captivating presence on-camera, and never shies away from the limelight, especially at training camp.

Though the Chiefs’ time in St. Joseph came to an end last week, a video of Kelce’s mic’d-up antics at Missouri Western State University was posted by the team’s official Twitter account on Tuesday afternoon.

Though the clip was relatively innocuous, it included a new catchphrase that may soon make its way into the vernacular of fans in Kansas City and around the country, which Kelce was heard saying often during the Chiefs’ training camp practices.

Kelce isn’t expected to see the field against the Chicago Bears in Kansas City’s preseason finale, but he may find a way to work this new soundbite into interviews from the sideline.

Stay tuned to see if this quip sticks in Kelce’s lexicon, or if it proves to be nothing more than a training camp quirk.

Watch: Willie Gay Jr. mic’d up at New Orleans Saints training camp

Newcomer Willie Gay Jr. was mic’d up at a recent New Orleans Saints training camp practice. Here’s a day of work from his perspective.

The New Orleans Saints finally placed a microphone on a new addition. After getting perspective from offensive players back to back in Rashid Shaheed and Cesar Ruiz, the Saints dipped back into the defensive pool with Willie Gay Jr. Alontae Taylor was the first player to be mic’d up at Saints training camp and also the last defender.

Throughout the video, you can see the energy he goes through practice with. He’s racing Dennis Allen, dancing, and talking with anyone in earshot about more dancing and the music playing.

There were no pads worn for this practice, which was uncomfortable to Gay because the Saints had worn pads so many days in a row at that point. Gay is already endearing himself to fans who watch this video.

“I look good in Black and Gold,” Gay said. “I didn’t look this good in red and yellow.”

Gay is new to the team, but he’s clearly connected fast and fits right in. His attitude and talent make him a strong fit in the middle unit of the Saints defense.
