Mohomes, which could become the first quartback in NFL's history to win three consecutive Super Bowls next weekend, was elevated to QB1 in Kansas City when the chiefs exchanged controversial three times Pro Bowler Alex Smith to Washington in 2018 .
Smith had just put a series of impressive statistics in the 2017 season, including the octaves and more yards (4,042) and a leader league pin qualification (104.7), which means that the call to move it was a great shock in That moment at that time.
And in a surprising video that has resurfaced seven years later, a visibly unhappy Kelce is seen criticizing the decision to replace Smith with Mohamses.
“It was definitely news that I was not trying to listen,” said the wing closed on Smith's exit during a 2018 appearance on the Dan Patrick program.
When asked why the Chiefs would like to separate from the company with their senior area after their solid year, Kelce admitted: 'That is the commercial side, I suppose. That is out of my control.

But the most impressive part of the interview occurred when Kelce was questioned in what Mohamses brings the table that Smith no.
“That is something I haven't seen yet,” he admitted. 'You mean that a mile can throw the ball, (but) Alex had most of more than 20 yards and touchdowns this season.
“His blow was that he was not a field pitcher, well, he threw it this year.”
After not being able to get to the AFC championship game in a quarter of a century, Mohamses guided the Chiefs to their first victory in the divisional playoffs since 1993 in its first season as head of the Chiefs.
Then he won the Super Bowl in his second year, before reaching the NFL masterpiece again and losing to the New England of Tom Brady in his third.
After the defeat in the AFC 2021 championship game, Mahomes and the Chiefs have won two consecutive Super Bowls, and will offer for a third party in New Orleans on February 9.
Smith, who spent three years in Washington before retiring, is greatly attributed to the Mohamses tutoring before being replaced as a titular field marshal by Texas Tech graduate.
