“They can’t sleep. They want it so bad. They’re hoping the other team messes up — that’s how locked in they are.”

That’s what retired safety Tyrann Mathieu said on the Up & Adams Show, claiming Mahomes and Kelce “haven’t had a proper night’s sleep since that Super Bowl loss” and that their offseason has been fueled by a full-blown obsession.

Now retired, Mathieu remains close with his former teammates — and what he sees is far from complacency. “They’re obsessed with making it right,” he said. “You’d think they’d be content with two rings, but no — that loss eats at them. Every day.”

Mathieu revealed that Mahomes and Kelce have taken their offseason preparation to another level. Early workouts, intense film study, and a drive that borders on obsession. “They don’t talk about anything else. They live in that moment — wanting to undo it.”

This inside look adds even more fuel to the fire as the Chiefs head into the 2025 season. With Mahomes and Kelce still at the core, and a chip firmly on their shoulders, Kansas City isn’t just aiming for another title — they’re on a mission for redemption.

The Kingdom should be ready — their leaders are coming back with a vengeance in their eyes.
