MIAMI -- What's it like inside a Super Bowl-winning Iocker room?

In an intimate postgame scene, Super Bowl LIV MVP Patrick Mahomes and Travis Kelce found each other in the Kansas City Chiefs' locker room and congratulated each other after completing a fourth-quarter comeback over the San Francisco 49ers at Hard Rock Stadium.

The Chiefs won their first Super Bowl in 50 years, rallying from a 10-point fourth-quarter deficit to stun the 49ers 31-20. Mahomes became the youngest quarterback to win Super Bowl MVP (24 years, 138 days old).

"We have heart," Mahomes said afterward. "I think those guys around this -- the leaders we have on this team -- they have that mindset that we never give up and we're going to fight to the end. Thank you, Kansas City, we did it."

Kelce, who finished with six receptions for 43 yards, scored the first of Kansas City's three unanswered fourth-quarter touchdowns -- a 1-yard reception from Mahomes with 6:13 remaining. The play followed a 44-yard pass to Tyreek Hill on third-and-15 and a pass-interference call in the end zone on the 49ers that put the Chiefs on the 49ers' 1.

"I knew we needed one more," Kelce said about his Super Bowl touchdown. "I just wanted to go to the sideline and regroup. ... It was a mindset there in the fourth quarter to say enough is enough and go win a ballgame."

The Chiefs became the first team in NFL history to win three consecutive playoff games after falling behind by 10 or more points.
