Super Bowl

Taylor Swift absolutely gushed over Travis Kelce down on the field after the Super Bowl on Sunday ... at one point telling him, "You are so magical!!"

The adorable comment was picked up on a hot mic as the two embraced at Allegiant Stadium in Las Vegas following the Chiefs' 25-22 win over the 49ers.

Swift also could be heard in the audio -- which was just released by the NFL -- telling Kelce, "I've never been so proud in my life."

"I can't believe you," she added. "How did you do that? How did you do it?"

Kelce then returned the compliments Swift's way ... praising her for somehow appearing totally normal despite taking a lengthy flight from Tokyo to Los Angeles in order to make it to the Big Game.

"How do you not have jet lag right now?" he said ... before she responded, "Jet lag is a choice."

The two, of course, then partied the night away ... hitting multiple clubs in Vegas throughout the night.

In fact, they were seen nuzzling up against each other so tightly at one of the postgame events ... Travis' big bro, Jason Kelce, called them "two people in love."

You'd think Megan Fox is Vladimir Putin the way Ukrainians are comin' for her -- they're pissed off about a self-deprecating comment she made, but Megan thinks everyone just needs to lighten the hell up!

Megan decided to respond to the torrent of social media comments on a pic she and MGK took Sunday night in Vegas with Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce. Haters blew her up with claims she'd surgically altered her face, so she fired back by posting a different angle of the foursome, and insisted she didn't look all that different.

She quipped in her caption, "turns out it was just a shadowy cell phone pic of me looking like a ukrainian blowup doll. when in REALITY i look one of those super expensive silicone real sex dolls you can only get in japan."

Welp ... Megan's "joke" didn't land with thousands of Ukrainians, who've left comments like, "Wtf? I'm from Ukrainian ...Am I looking like a blow up doll?" ... "I guess xenophobia towards Eastern European is still a thing in Hollywood" and "Ukraine is being annihilated in a war unprovoked. Pls can we just focus on that."

Megan's not taking the backlash quietly, as she's responded to a few of the comments, and clearly wants people to know they've got it all twisted -- she wrote, "dear god. that is NOT what i meant. ukrainian women are hot af and so in my imagination the blowup dolls would also be hot. let a girl make a joke for f***s sake."

Jackson Mahomes was caught up in the chaos during the Kansas City parade shooting -- at least according to one eyewitness ... who says she saw him going above and beyond.

A woman named Jess revealed on X Wednesday that Patrick Mahomes' little brother had actually stuck around in the aftermath of the Chiefs parade -- and was apparently on the scene when shots rang out and people started panicking.

She writes, "I don’t care what anyone says but I have found a new found respect for Jackson Mahomes, Ana and I were stuck hiding with him at union station by the trains and he was taking care of a child who lost his parents and helping him calm down."

Her tweet has since gone viral ... and while she didn't elaborate beyond that, the story about Jackson is being praised and shared -- with many expressing shock Jackson was there.

The Chiefs players/staff had already left by the time gunfire erupted ... so it's shocking to hear JM may have still been around. According to Jess ... not only was he on the scene, but he was helping others -- including the most vulnerable people who were scared/distressed.

What Jess goes on to describe about the moment is absolutely horrifying -- and if she's saying Jackson was right there with her ... then he was experiencing the exact same thing.

She says, "We heard pops and then we saw everyone rushing running crying headed towards where I was standing in panic and we had to jump over the gates by the stage and entrance of union station running for our lives in union station hearing gunshots seeing people HIDING IN OVENS!"

The Chiefs org itself said afterward that all players, coaches and staff members were safe and accounted for -- but on its face, it doesn't sound like that applied to Jackson ... that is, if what this eyewitness is describing is accurate ... though, she seems quite sure.

As we reported ... at least one person was left dead from the shooting, and 22 other suffered gunshot wounds of varying degrees. A few people were detained, but no arrests have been announced just yet ... and police say they're still investigating what exactly happened.

Video of a man being tackled by bystanders appears to show someone picking up a rifle of some sort and tossing it aside -- although, it's unclear what the motive for the shooting was.

The most tragic part about this is that several of the victims are children, nearly a dozen.

Un nuevo video muestra el momento en que se inicia el horrible tiroteo en la celebración de los Kansas City por su victoria en el Super Bowl, y este metraje muestra gráficamente cuando algunas personas heridas caen al suelo y la multitud se dispersa.

El video es de la cámara de vigilancia de un apartamento cercano. En este se ve a la multitud dando vueltas después de que termina el desfile hasta que de repente se escucha una ráfaga de disparos sonando.

Además de registrar a varias personas cayendo al suelo, presumiblemente heridas, se puede ver dónde se disparó el arma en función de hacia dónde se dispersa la multitud.

También se ve a los policías corriendo a la zona donde el pistolero inició el fuego.

Como informamos, un hombre que recibió un disparo dice que su esposa y su hija escucharon a una mujer diciéndole a un hombre en la multitud "no lo hagas. No aquí. Esto es estúpido", poco antes de que se escucharan los disparos.

Varios asistentes al desfile abordaron a un hombre armado poco después del tiroteo. La policía se abalanzó sobre él y lo detuvo. Al menos tres personas han sido detenidas en relación con el ataque.

New video shows the horrific shooting at the Kansas City Super Bowl parade ... and this footage graphically shows injured people falling to the ground and the crowd scattering.

The video is from a nearby apartment surveillance camera. You see the crowd milling around after the parade ended, and then suddenly a flurry of shots ring out.

As several people fall to the ground, presumably injured, you see where the gun was fired based on where the crowd disburses.

You also see cops rushing toward the area where the gunman appears to have fired.

As we reported, a man who was shot says his wife and daughter heard a woman tell a man in the crowd, "Don't do it. Not here. This is stupid," shortly before shots rang out.

Several parade-goers tackled a man carrying a gun shortly after the shooting. Police swooped in and took him into custody. At least 3 people have been detained in connection to the shooting.

Travis Kelce entró a un restaurante unas horas después del tiroteo en Kansas City, esto de acuerdo a nuevas fotos obtenidas por TMZ.

Conseguimos 3 fotos que muestran al jugador ofensivo de los KC Chiefs caminando hacia el Granfalloon Restaurant and Bar el miércoles por la noche, y como se puede ver, fue visto por algunos agentes policiales que querían sacarse una selfie con él.

Travis estuvo obligado a hacerlo y otros testigos nos dicen que luego entró al restaurante y se unió a otros compañeros de equipo. Parece que tenía una cerveza en la mano.

También nos cuentan que las fotos fueron tomadas un poco antes de las 7 PM CT, que hemos confirmado por nuestra parte también, así como por la comprobación de los metadatos, lo que habría sido varias horas después de que estallaron los disparos cerca de Union Station justo antes ese mismo día, en medio de la celebración de los Chiefs.

Travis estuvo cantando melodías de Garth Brooks durante la celebración, antes de que las cosas se volvieran siniestras. Alguien (o más de uno) abrió fuego cerca de la multitud que merodeaba la zona, causando la muerte de 1 persona y 22 heridos de bala.

Travis se refirió al tiroteo en X: "Tengo el corazón destrozado por la tragedia que ha tenido lugar hoy. Mi corazón está con todos los que vinieron a celebrar con nosotros y se han visto afectados. Kansas City, significas el mundo para mí".

Su equipo también se refirió al tiroteo, diciendo: "Estamos verdaderamente entristecidos por el acto de violencia sin sentido que ocurrió afuera de Union Station al final del desfile de hoy. Nuestros corazones están con las víctimas, sus familias y todo Kansas City".

Señalaron que todos los jugadores, entrenadores y personal estaban a salvo.

La mayoría de los jugadores de los Chiefs también se han pronunciado sobre el tiroteo. En cuanto a quién más podría haber estado en el Granfalloon con Travis ... poco se sabe.

Un hombre que recibió un disparo tras la celebración de los Kansas City por el Super Bowl, al igual que su esposa y su hijo, dice que antes de que sonaran los disparos escuchó a una mujer diciéndole a un hombre: "No lo hagas. No aquí. Esto es estúpido".

Jacob Gooch Sr. dice que su esposa y su hija vieron al tirador disparando mientras se movía en círculos. Se habló de que el tiroteo podría haber sido el resultado de dos o más personas peleando, pero si lo que Gooch dice es correcto, dar vueltas con un arma de fuego sugiere que la persona estaba tratando de atacar a la mayor cantidad de personas posible.

Y además está esto: 15 minutos antes del tiroteo, vio a unas personas que él percibió como sospechosas cerca de él, eran 4 a 6 "niños" con máscaras y ropa negra. Dice que desaparecieron entre la multitud poco antes de que terminara la celebración.

Gooch recibió un disparo en el tobillo, su mujer en el pecho y su hijo en el pie. Dice que todos están bien.

A man who was shot after the Kansas City Super Bowl Parade ended -- shot along with his wife and son -- says immediately before shots rang out he heard a woman tell a guy in the crowd, "Don't do it. Not here. This is stupid."

Jacob Gooch Sr. says his wife and daughter saw the shooter fire as he spun in a circle. There was talk the shooting might have been the result of two or more people beefing with each other, but if Gooch's account is correct, spinning in a circle as the gunman fired suggests he was trying to hit as many people as he could.

And there's this ... 15 minutes before the shooting, he saw what he thought were suspicious people near him ... 4 to 6 "kids," wearing black masks and black clothing. He says they disappeared in the crowd shortly before the rally ended.

Gooch got shot in the ankle, his wife was shot in the calf, and his son was shot in the foot. He says all of them are ok.

Travis Kelce walked into a restaurant a few hours after the shooting at the Kansas City parade -- this according to new photos obtained by TMZ.

We obtained 3 pictures that show the KC Chiefs tight end walking into the Granfalloon Restaurant and Bar Wednesday night -- and as you can see, he was spotted by some police officers on hand who wanted a selfie.

Travis obliged, and eyewitnesses say he then went inside the restaurant ... joining other teammates, we're told. Looks like he had a beer in hand.

We're told the pics were snapped a little before 7 PM CT -- which we've confirmed on our end as well, checking the metadata -- and that would be several hours after shots rang out near Union Station just earlier in the day ... just after the Chiefs parade wrapped up.

Travis was singing Garth Brooks tunes during the celebration ... before things turned deadly. Someone (or more than one) opened fire near the crowd that hung around in the aftermath, resulting in at least 1 dead, and 22 others who suffered gunshot wounds.

Travis addressed the shooting on X. ... "I am heartbroken over the tragedy that took place today. My heart is with all who came out to celebrate with us and have been affected. KC, you mean the world to me."

His team also addressed the shooting ... writing, "We are truly saddened by the senseless act of violence that occurred outside of Union Station at the conclusion of today's parade and rally. Our hearts go out to the victims, their families, and all of Kansas City."

They noted that all of the players, coaches and staffers were safe and accounted for.

Most Chiefs players have spoken out about the shooting as well. As far as who else might've been at the Granfalloon with Travis ... unclear.

4:45 PM PT -- A bit of good news ... an official at the local children's hospital tells us the 11 minor patients they are treating, ages between 6 and 15, are expected to survive. 9 of the victims were treated for gunshot wounds.

3:26 PM PT -- Kansas City officials just held a press conference and the scale of this mass shooting ... and it was much larger than anyone thought.

For starters, there are a total of 22 gunshot wound victims at this point ... and 7 of them have suffered life-threatening injuries -- way more than what was initially reported.

3 individuals have been detained at this point ... but it's unclear if they've been arrested and charged with anything just yet. The cops say that one of people detained stemmed the viral tackling that went around on social media -- where an apparent AR-style rifle was seized.

At least one person was killed in the shooting.

3:11 PM PT -- We're now learning more about the victims from this shooting -- a majority whom are apparently children.

Multiple reports are pouring in that say of the 12 patients at a local hospital -- 11 of them are children ... and 9 of those 11 have gunshot wounds.

2:37 PM PT -- As it turns out ... an AR-style rifle may well have been used during this shooting -- something you can now see clearly in zoomed-in footage of a man getting tackled.

In the clip below -- where bystanders take a man down and pin him until cops arrive -- you see a woman in white pick up what appears to be a clear firearm ... and from the looks of it, it's a long rifle. The gun itself seems to be black -- but it's unclear if it belonged to the person who was tackled.

A lot of questions still need to be answered ... and cops are looking into it. On the face of it though -- this could've been a lot worse than it already was.

The Chiefs also addressed the tragedy ... saying, "We are truly saddened by the senseless act of violence that occurred outside of Union Station at the conclusion of today's parade and rally."

"Our hearts go out to the victims, their families, and all of Kansas City."

The team added it will continue to stay in contact with law enforcement and local officials ... and shared their appreciation to all the first responders who took action.

New video, obtained by TMZ, shows the moment a flurry of shots rang out at the Kansas City Chiefs Super Bowl victory rally.

You hear someone in the crowd scream out, "Patrick f**king Mahomes," seemingly in celebration of the Chiefs' victory. Then, in the distance, you hear a series of gunshots ... appearing to come from either an automatic or semiautomatic weapon, based on the rapid fire.

People then scramble for safety and victims fall to the ground.

At least one person was killed and authorities say 10 to 15 people were injured. None of the players, coaches or staffers were injured in the shooting.

Two people are in custody in connection with the shooting.

Several people in the crowd had eyes on someone who they believed was one of the shooters. You see them run and then tackle that person to the ground ... while another bystander seems to grab what looks like a rifle, moving it away from the scrum until police arrived on the scene.

The shooting occurred just after the parade ended.

Police do not know the motive.

4:45 PM PT -- Algunas buenas noticias... un funcionario del hospital infantil local nos dice que se espera que los 11 pacientes menores de edad que están tratando, de edades comprendidas entre los 6 y los 15 años, sobrevivan. 9 de las víctimas fueron tratadas por heridas de bala.

3:26 PM PT -- Funcionarios de Kansas City acaban de hacer una conferencia de prensa y la escala de este tiroteo fue mucho más grande de lo que nadie pensaba.

Para empezar, hay un total de 22 víctimas heridas de bala hasta el momento y 7 de ellos han sufrido lesiones que amenazan sus vidas... esto es mucho más de lo que se informó inicialmente.

Tres personas han sido detenidas, pero no está claro si han sido arrestados. La policía dice que una de las personas detenidas la encotraron gracias al seguimiento viral que dio la vuelta en redes sociales, y donde se incautó un rifle de estilo AR.

Al menos una persona murió en el tiroteo.

3:11 PM PT -- Ahora estamos aprendiendo más acerca de las víctimas de este tiroteo - la mayoría de los cuales son aparentemente niños.

Múltiples informes están llegando que dicen que de los 12 pacientes en un hospital local - 11 de ellos son niños ... y 9 de los 11 tienen heridas de bala.

2:37 PM PT -- Resulta que un rifle AR-15 podría haber sido utilizado durante el tiroteo, algo que ahora se puede ver claramente en estas nuevas imágenes.

En el clip se puede ver como los transeúntes tienen un hombre inmovilizado para entregarlo a la policía. Se ve a una mujer de blanco recogiendo lo que parece ser un arma de fuego,  y por lo que parece, es un rifle largo. El arma en sí parece ser negra, pero no está claro si pertenecía a la persona que fue inmovilizada.

Todavía quedan muchas preguntas por responder... y la policía está investigando. A primera vista, esto podría haber sido mucho peor de lo que fue.

Un nuevo video obtenido por TMZ, muestra el momento en que una ráfaga de disparos aterrorizó la celebración de la victoria de los Kansas City Chiefs en el Super Bowl.

Se oye a alguien entre la multitud gritando "Patrick f**king Mahomes", aparentemente para celebrar la victoria de los Chiefs. Entonces, en la distancia, se oye una serie de disparos que parecen venir de un arma automática o semiautomática.

A continuación, la gente lucha por su seguridad y las víctimas caen al suelo.

Al menos una persona murió y las autoridades dicen que entre 10 y 15 personas resultaron heridas. Ninguno de los jugadores, entrenadores o miembros del personal resultó herido en el tiroteo.

Dos personas están detenidas en relación con el tiroteo.

Varias personas de la multitud tenían los ojos en alguien que creían que era uno de los tiradores. Se les ve correr y derribar a esa persona al suelo y sujetarla hasta que llegaron los policías y se hicieron cargo.

El tiroteo se produjo justo después de que terminara el desfile.

La policía no sabe el motivo.

3:29 PM PT -- Las fuerzas policiales acaban de revelar que un total de 22 personas fueron alcanzadas por los disparos del tiroteo de este miércoles, diciendo que ocho de esas víctimas sufrieron heridas "que ponen en riesgo su vida".

No se ha revelado el posible motivo del ataque, aunque las autoridades dijeron que tres personas han sido detenidas en relación con el fatal incidente.

1:51 PM PT -- La jefa del Departamento Policial de Kansas City acaba de decir en una reunión con miembros de los medios de comunicación que "más de 10 a 15" personas resultaron heridas por disparos, con un fallecido. Añadió que no creía que ninguna de las víctimas fueran niños.

El alcalde de Kansas City, por su parte, dijo que todos los jugadores, entrenadores y empleados de los Chiefs se encuentran a salvo.

En cuanto al posible motivo del tiroteo, el jefe dijo que todavía no está claro, ya que la investigación sigue en curso. Dos sospechosos, sin embargo, están bajo custodia, dijo.

1:22 PM -- La policía dice que una persona murió en el tiroteo, mientras que otras nueve resultaron heridas.

1:19 PM -- Acaba de surgir un perturbador y explícito video de la escena que muestra a varias personas que necesitan atención médica mientras la sangre corre por el suelo.

El desfile de los Chiefs por el Super Bowl acaba de tomar un giro horrible: unos disparos estallaron en la fiesta y varias personas han resultado heridas.

El Departamento de Policía de Kansas City dijo en un comunicado que poco después de que Travis Kelce y Patrick Mahomes se dirigieran a los cientos de miles de fanáticos del Kansas City en Union Station, estallaron unos disparos alrededor de un garaje cercano.

Según la policía, "varias personas fueron alcanzadas" por las balas, aunque no está claro la gravedad de sus lesiones.

La policía dice que "dos personas armadas" fueron "detenidas para más investigación".

Las autoridades están ahora instando a todos a abandonar la zona "con el fin de facilitar el tratamiento de las víctimas del tiroteo".

Un video de la escena muestra cómo se desencadenaron estos lamentables hechos. En las imágenes se pueden ver múltiples policías con sus armas desenfundadas mientras corrían dentro de Union Station para hacer frente a la situación.

El KCPD dijo en su declaración que los oficiales estaban "trabajando para proporcionar la seguridad de todos dentro de la estación y acelerar la atención de los heridos".

Mientras tanto, James Palmer, de NFL Network, dijo que él y sus colegas fueron instruidos inicialmente para meterse debajo de un escenario después de que estalló el tiroteo. Minutos después, sin embargo, fueron escoltados fuera de la escena.

Tras el caos, el linebacker de los Chiefs Drue Tranquill publicó oraciones por los heridos en su página de X escribiendo: "Oren para que los médicos y los primeros en responder tengan manos firmes y que todos experimenten una curación completa".

La aparición de Justin Bieber en el show del Super Bowl estuvo muy cerca de haber ocurrido, pero simplemente no estaba en las estrellas, por lo que dice Lil Jon.

Hablamos con el rapero en TMZ Live el miércoles y nos dice que Justin Bieber en realidad estuvo considerando subir al escenario junto a Usher, su antiguo mentor para la gran actuación, pero al final decidió pasar porque significaba mucho para él.

Lil Jon añade que todos querían que Biebs estuviera en el show, pero los ensayos, la responsabilidad, el tiempo y los ojos puestos en él no eran algo que quisiera enfrentar en este momento, y como todos vimos, optó por relajarse en el público con su esposa Hailey.

Por supuesto, los fans estaban deprimidos de que no le hubiera dicho que sí a Usher.

Alicia Keys, H.E.R., Ludacris y will.i.am terminaron subiendo al escenario junto a Lil Jon, así que no es que los fans no tuvieran artistas de la lista A durante su actuación de 13 minutos. Y aunque Justin no estaba allí, Lil Jon dice que igual estaba apoyándolo.

Sin embargo, no se puede negar que este dueto habría añadido una capa extra de magia al espectáculo, sobre todo porque fuimos los primeros en contarles que estaban en conversaciones directas para llevar a cabo el momento que habría sido recordado por muchos años.

Por si no lo saben, Usher ayudó a catapultar a Bieber a la fama y este ha estado trabajando desde entonces, así que por su parte, parece que todavía necesita un descanso de las actuaciones.

3:29 PM PT -- Law enforcement just revealed a total of 22 people were struck by gunfire in Wednesday's shooting ... saying eight of those victims suffered "immediately life threatening" wounds.

No potential motive for the attack has been released ... although authorities said three people have been detained in connection with the shooting.

1:51 PM PT -- The Kansas City Police Dept. Chief just said in a meeting with media members that "upwards of 10 to 15" people were injured by gunfire ... with one deceased. She added that she did not believe any of the victims were children.

K.C.'s Mayor, meanwhile, said all of the Chiefs' players, coaches and staffers are accounted for and safe.

As far as a potential motive for the shooting, the chief said that's still unclear -- as an investigation remains ongoing. Two suspects, however, are in custody ... she said.

1:22 PM PT -- Law enforcement says one person died in the shooting -- while nine others were injured.

1:19 PM PT -- Disturbing and graphic video has emerged from the scene ... showing multiple people needing medical attention -- while blood is clearly on the ground nearby.

The Chiefs' Super Bowl parade has just taken a horrifying turn ... cops say gunfire has broken out at the party -- and multiple people have been wounded.

The Kansas City Police Dept. said in a statement that shortly after Travis Kelce and Patrick Mahomes addressed the hundreds of thousands of K.C. supporters at Union Station ... gunfire erupted around a garage nearby.

According to cops, "several people were struck" by bullets ... though it's unclear the severity of their injuries.

Cops say "two armed people" have been "detained for more investigation."

Authorities are now urging everyone to leave the area "in order to facilitate treatment of shooting victims."

Video from the scene shows just how horrifying things got ... you can see in footage multiple cops had their guns drawn as they raced inside Union Station to deal with the matter.

The KCPD said in its statement the officers were "working to provide for the safety of everyone inside union station and expedite care of those injured."

NFL Network's James Palmer, meanwhile, said he and his colleagues were initially instructed to get under a stage after the gunfire erupted. Minutes later, though, they were escorted from the scene.

Following the mayhem, Chiefs linebacker Drue Tranquill posted prayers on his X page for those injured ... writing, "Pray that doctors & first responders would have steady hands & that all would experience full healing."

Mahomes also posted prayers on X ... writing, "Praying for Kansas City…"

Justin Bieber's Super Bowl Halftime appearance could've very nearly happened ... but it just wasn't in the stars, so says Lil Jon.

We spoke to the rapper on TMZ Live Wednesday ... and he tells us JB was actually considering taking to the stage for his former mentor Usher's big performance ... but ultimately decided to sit it out 'cause it was just a lot for him to take on.

LJ adds they all wanted Biebs in the show ... but all the rehearsals, responsibility, time, and eyeballs on him apparently wasn't something he wanted to tackle right now ... and as we all saw Sunday, he opted to chill in the audience with his wife Hailey.

Of course, fans were bummed he didn't say yeah to Usher.

Alicia Keys, H.E.R., Ludacris, and will.i.am ended up hopping onstage alongside Lil Jon, so it's not like fans were deprived of an A-list line-up during Usher's 13-minute-long performance. And while Justin wasn't up there ... Lil Jon says he was still supporting him.

Still, there's no denying that the hyped-up JB/Usher collab would've added an extra layer of magic to the spectacle ... especially since we were first to break the story they were in direct talks of executing the moment that would've been remembered for years to come.

In case you didn't know, Usher helped catapult fresh-faced 13-year-old Bieber to massive fame back in the day ... and he's been working overtime ever since, so from his end, it looks like he still needs a break from performing.

Travis Kelce appeared to be just a wee bit drunk at the Chiefs' Super Bowl parade Wednesday ... slurring his way through a rendition of "Friends In Low Places" -- before Patrick Mahomes had to snatch the microphone away from him.

The hundreds of thousands of Kansas City supporters in attendance at Union Station couldn't wait for the tight end to hop on the mic at the championship celebration -- and, initially, it looked like he was going to deliver a speech for the ages.

The 34-year-old started to lead the crowd in a chant that accompanies the Tomahawk Chop ... before he called an audible, and tried to get everyone to sing Garth Brooks' hit song along with him.

Quickly, however, it became apparent Kelce was a little too overserved to get through the whole tune ... as he mixed up words and stumbled repeatedly.

He tried to make things right by going to his phone for the lyrics ... but even that didn't seem to do the trick.

Ultimately, Mahomes bailed him out by singing the song's chorus ... before he gave up -- and handed the microphone off to the show's host.

Up until that point, most of the rest of the Chiefs seemed fairly composed -- Mahomes spoke to the crowd about getting back to this point next season ... while star defensive end Chris Jones guaranteed he won't be moving on from Kansas City in free agency.

As for where Kelce goes from here, it's unclear ... as his girlfriend, Taylor Swift, is in Australia -- while he's obviously in need of some water and a nap.
