Last year, the Kelce brothers made history as the first siblings to play in the Super Bowl. Jason represented the Philadelphia Eagles, and Travis played for the Chiefs in Arizona. This time, as per Fox News reports, Jason, adorned in a Chiefs beanie and a vibrant Hawaiian shirt, shared an emotional embrace with Travis on the field. In a passionate message, Jason acknowledged the challenges of the season and urged Travis to “Finish this motherf—–!” Travis reciprocated the enthusiasm, expressing his love for his older brother and embracing the emotional connection that goes beyond the competitiveness of the game.
Travis Kelce’s standout performance in the AFC Championship Game was notable, contributing significantly to the Chiefs’ victory over the Ravens. His impressive statistics included a flawless record of 11 catches on 11 targets, amassing 116 yards, and scoring a crucial touchdown. The Mahomes-Kelce connection, which played a pivotal role in the triumph against the Buffalo Bills in the AFC Divisional Round, once again proved instrumental.
