Patrick Mahomes and Travis Kelce should be on respective phone screensavers, given that they’re both in relationships. But a certain Bengals defensive back has a photo of both of them as his own lock screen.
The Bengals came close to beating the Chiefs in Week 2; however, a Harrison Butker field goal sealed the deal for the defending Super Bowl champions after a controversial flag.
It appears safety Daijahn Anthony doesn’t plan on putting the defeat behind him as he has changed his screensaver to feature the aforementioned Chiefs stars, whom he hopes to play again in the postseason.
“They’re not family,” he told reporters. “But I can’t wait to see them again.”

Fans Destroyed Daijahn Anthony Over His Using Patrick Mahomes And Travis Kelce As His Screensaver
Fans found the safety’s admission a bit awkward.
“This team is so annoying bro 🤣,” one wrote.
“This is the weirdest team in the NFL 😭😭😭😭,” another said.
“These guys openly admit KC lives in their head rent free 😭,” said a third.
“Who do they think they’re lol? This is the cringiest team right now. They aren’t good but act like this great Super Bowl contending team. They won’t even get close to it this year,” a comment read.
The loss was especially hard for Anthony, who was called for pass interference after the Chiefs went for it on fourth down with less than a minute to go in the game while out of field goal range. The penalty allowed Butker to kick in a 51-yard field goal that won the game.
The Bengals are 0-2 to start the season and will have their work cut out for them. Anthony would probably be better off focusing on the teams he actually has to play, as playoff football is far from certain at the moment.
