WATCH: Chiefs Travis Kelce Mistakes Rams Sean McVay For Mighty Ducks 'Gordon Bombay'

Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce may have found Los Angeles Rams coach Sean McVay a celebrity look-alike.

After playing in the NFL for 10 years, you would think that Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce would know many of the league's head coaches.

Especially the ones that have won a Super Bowl.

But... you'd be wrong if you believed that was the case. 

In a new episode of the New Heights Podcast, hosted by the Kelce brothers, Jason and Travis, the Chiefs star was asked to name the head coaches by face from their group picture at the NFL Owners' Meeting in Phoenix, Arizona. 

After citing that he wasn't "good with names," Kelce opted to do teams. 

And even then, he missed several, including those of teams he has faced on a regular basis, like Josh McDaniels, the head coach of division rival Las Vegas Raiders. He didn't even recognize Cincinnati Bengals coach Zac Taylor on the first try. 

Yet, Kelce was lightning fast when it came time to name the team that Sean McVay coached, although Kelce didn't even do that. 

Kelce called McVay "Gordon Bombay,' making a hilarious reference to the 'Mighty Ducks' coach.

The fact that McVay was pictured at the NFL Owners' Meeting is something that Los Angeles Rams fans can rejoice about, as it was long rumored that last season would be his final as he had plans of taking a break from the sidelines and moving into broadcasting. 

But even after a tumultuous 5-12 Super Bowl hangover season, "Bombay" returned to Los Angeles for his seventh season as the head coach.
