"Love it. Love it. Iβm all for it," Jones said, adding he believed Trump has "got the best thing for us."
Trumpβs expected appearance at the Super Bowl has been the talk of the city since the first inkling that he may attend the event trickled out.
Chiefs stars Patrick Mahomes and Travis Kelce both seemingly appreciated the idea of a sitting president taking the time to attend the game.
"It's always cool to be able to play in front of a sitting president," Mahomes said. "Someone that is at the top position in our country."

Philadelphia Eagles quarterback Jalen Hurts also weighed in.
"He's welcome to do what he wants," Hurts said.Β
