Kansas City Chiefs stars Patrick Mahomes and Travis Kelce are among the favorite high-profile athletes to be roasted next.
The numbers for Tom Brady’s recent Netflix roast, the first of its kind, haven’t been released yet. But the talk on social media suggests it was a huge success.
As such, the streaming giants should look to continue the trend, so there are already odds on who will be next, with BetOnline.ag opening lines on that front.
Mahomes and Kelce are among the top 10, with the sportsbook attaching them to odds of 9/1 and 8/1, respectively.

Charles Barkley – 5/1
Shaquille O’Neal – 5/1
Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson – 6/1
Michael Strahan – 8/1
Travis Kelce – 8/1
Patrick Mahomes – 9/1
Peyton Manning – 10/1
Phil Mickelson – 11/1
Steph Curry – 12/1
Of course, these odds aren’t random. The players had to meet certain requirements.
“It has to be someone with a big ego, the ability to make fun of themselves, and have a massive following globally,” the bookmakers wrote.
Would Patrick Mahomes Even Agree To This?
Patrick Mahomes is behind Brady in the GOAT conversation, having won three Super Bowls and two MVP awards. He is also a two-time first-team All-Pro and is only 28. Should he play as long as Brady did, he just might win more rings than the former New England Patriots star.
Whether he can endure the type of jokes Brady did is something else altogether.
Mahomes is devoted to his family, and we would have to imagine his wife and kids would be off-limits if he ever agreed to get roasted.
Kelce, on the other hand, doesn’t seem like there’s much that bothers him.
He is also a three-time Super Bowl winner with four first-team All-Pro nods. His happy-go-lucky personality and relationship with Taylor Swift would make him the ideal candidate. Kelce is definitely a better target than his Chiefs teammate, and his comeback would likely be better too.
