NFL star reveals he would never live in Kansas City in savage attack on the place Travis Kelce calls home

NFL star reveals he would never live in Kansas City in savage attack on the place Travis Kelce calls home

On the latest episode of the podcast he runs with his brother, Detroit Lions wide receiver Amon-Ra St. Brown threw some shade on the city of Kansas City.

St. Brown, a Pro-Bowler and a first-team All-Pro selection last year, was interviewing rookie wideout Jaylin Noel who was drafted by the Houston Texans two months ago.

Noel, a Kansas City native and a standout at Iowa State, was asked about any potential culture shock he may be facing by moving to the South after spending his whole life in the Midwest.

‘I mean, city-wise, [Houston’s] a lot faster,’ Noel said. ‘Kansas City, I call it a medium city.

‘You have slow parts, faster parts, but Houston’s a lot faster. And then the humidity is all the time in Houston.’

St. Brown couldn’t help himself when given the opportunity to trash on Kansas City – saying that he didn’t enjoy his time in the Missouri metropolis when visiting.

‘I’ve been to Kansas City,’ St. Brown said. ‘I was there for the draft. But I’m sorry. If you have money, I’m not living here after I get some money.’

When asked by Amon-Ra’s brother, Equanimeous St. Brown, if he’d move back to Kansas City, Noel said that he wouldn’t.

He said that he’d more likely ‘get a place in Dallas’, where his fiancée is from. However, Noel did say he enjoyed the food in Kansas City.

Amon-Ra did get some backlash for his comments, with many people pointing out an obvious discrepancy between his current home city and KC.

‘Buddy, you live in Detroit…,’ wrote one commenter on X. Another said, ‘Yeah so how is the beautiful thriving metropolis of Detroit Michigan working out for you???’

Another comment read, ‘People like Amon-Ra not wanting to live in KC is the reason I love living in KC.’

One Chiefs fan responded, ‘Dog you have to understand that Kansas City is basically just suburbs. It’s great to raise a family and just live the suburban life, but if you want to party, places like Miami and New York are better.’
