The anticipation for the next celebrity roast is high, especially after the success of Tom Brady’s Netflix roast. Among the names swirling in discussions are NFL stars Patrick Mahomes and Travis Kelce from the Kansas City Chiefs.

Streaming platforms, eager to capitalize on the trend, have already set odds for potential roastees. BetOnline.ag, for instance, has compiled a list of top contenders, including familiar names like LeBron James, Charles Barkley, Shaquille O’Neal, and Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson.

Mahomes and Kelce find themselves among the top 10 contenders, with odds of 9/1 and 8/1, respectively. These odds aren’t arbitrary; they’re based on specific criteria outlined by the bookmakers.

Would Patrick Mahomes Even Agree To This?

To be a worthy candidate for a roast, one must possess a robust ego, be willing to poke fun at oneself and boast a substantial global fanbase.

While Mahomes boasts an impressive career record, having won three Super Bowls and two MVP awards at the tender age of 28, the big question looms: Would he agree to subject himself to the roast? Given his devotion to his family, particularly his wife and kids, some speculate that certain topics might be off-limits for him.

In contrast, Kelce, with his carefree personality and extensive accomplishments, seems like a more willing candidate.

As a three-time Super Bowl winner with a jovial demeanor and a high-profile relationship with Taylor Swift, Kelce fits the bill perfectly for a roast. It’s likely that his willingness to embrace the roast, coupled with his charismatic comeback, could make him an ideal target for the next big roast event.
