Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce stars in a new commercial for Bud Light
Quarterback Patrick Mahomes isn’t the only Chiefs player who is part of a new beer commercial.
Tight end Travis Kelce is featured in a new spot for Bud Light, and like Mahomes, he never actually promotes the beer or even mentions it by name.
The spot is called “Backyard Grunts with Travis Kelce,” and it pokes fun at the sounds people of a certain age make when they ease back into a chair or get out of one.
Bud Light is trying to turn around its fortunes as it has seen sales plunge after what Yahoo Finance called the “fateful Dylan Mulvaney promotion.”
It seems the beermaker is hoping the presence of a Super Bowl champion will improve those lagging sales.
Here is the spot featuring Kelce, who merely says “yeah” at one point in the commercial (but who showed off his acting chops on “Saturday Night Live”).
