Donna Kelce is repping the Kansas City Chiefs on the set of her new Hallmark Christmas movie.

Sporting her son Travis Kelce's No. 87 jersey, "Mama Kelce" appeared in the latest teaser for Holiday Touchdown: A Chiefs Love Story, which stars many people associated with the NFL team.

Tyler Hynes, who stars as one of the film's love interests, radio personality Richard Christy and Donna, 71, all posted the same Instagram video on Saturday, July 20, to give fans a behind-the-scenes look at the movie.

"Hitting the field this holiday season…????@chiefs ✖️ @hallmarkchannel," Hynes wrote in the caption.

The short clip shows several of the cast members walking through the halls of the GEHA Field at Arrowhead Stadium in Missouri — home to the Kansas City Chiefs — to the song "Rush" by Tom Sawyer.

Toward the beginning, Donna can be spotted pumping her arms in the air while she wears Travis’ jersey. The words "Mama Kelce" appear on the screen as she makes her entrance. 

Later, Donna is shown standing beside actress Christine Ebersole and another cast member as they sport aprons and stand in front of a brick wall, which perhaps depicts Donna's character in her natural element as the movie synopsis states that she is playing the manager of Kansas City BBQ restaurant Norma & Nic’s.

The love story is expected to air this holiday season as part of Hallmark Channel's Countdown to Christmas. The movie follows Alana (played by Hunter King), who enters her family in a Chiefs Fan of the Year contest and meets Derrick (Hynes), the director of fan engagement for the team.

Also making cameos in the teaser are several other Chiefs figures, including head coach Andy Reid and players Trey Smith, Clyde Edwards-Helaire and George Karlaftis.

Another sighting in the clip is of famed feline Catrick Mahomes, who will also be in the film. The 7-year-old Bengal-Tabby mix, whose real name is Sly James the Cat, became a hit with Chiefs fans when his owner, teacher Brandy Peed, began dressing him as quarterback Patrick Mahomes.
