Chiefs center Creed Humphrey on Friday teased his appearance on “Saturday Night Live,” but viewers didn’t see him on the show, which was hosted by teammate Travis Kelce.

However, it turns out Humphrey did film scenes for a mock commercial about NFL players who give back to the community.

That is to say, they pick up women who want their boyfriends/spouses to lift them off the ground. It’s part of a fake “NFL Gives Back” campaign that “Saturday Night Live” writers envisioned.

The 302-pound Humphrey was joined by Eagles center Jason Kelce and Travis Kelce. Kansas City’s Heidi Gardner is among the “Saturday Night Live” cast members who appear in the spot.

This didn’t air on Saturday night, but the show shared the video on its social media channels.

Humphrey notes in the commercial that he is “volunteering.”
