Travis Kelce couldn’t hold back the waterworks as he witnessed his big bro, Jason Kelce announce his retirement from the NFL.
During the emotional press conference, Jason struggled to compose himself while shedding tears.
Sitting in the front row alongside his parents, Donna and Ed Kelce, and his sister-in-law, Kylie Kelce, Travis was also visibly emotional, wiping away his tears with a tissue, HeTexted.com reports.
Unlike his brother, the Kansas City Chiefs standout came equipped with dark sunglasses to hide his emotions.
During the conference, Jason mentioned the part when Travis got to fulfill his dream and how happy he was that Travis got to make it true and live the dream.
When Jason wrapped up his speech, he strutted off the stage and swooped in for a massive bear hug with Travis before repeating the gesture with every single member of the fam.
Ugh, that press conference was a rollercoaster of emotions! We were all dreading it, but man, we love that Kelce brother so much.
It was so heartwarming to see Travis there supporting Jason as he announced his retirement. These two have been through everything together, chasing their dreams and being each other’s biggest cheerleaders.
It’s a bummer we won’t see Jason on the field anymore, but hey, at least we still have the podcast and him showing up to Travis’ games. Trying to hold back the tears over here!!
With that said, let’s look at some of the most epic moments involving the two brothers that put their bond on full display.
Unforgettable moments between Travis and Jason
These moments put on full display the Kelce brothers feel for one another!
The hug after the retirement speech
The hug they shared after Jason finished his speech was to cry for. It looked so sincere and amazing that we could feel the love from miles away.
Jason talked about his bond with his brother, reminiscing about the times they spent playing sports as kids and the excitement they shared when one of them got drafted into the NFL
He also shared how he and Travis when they were kids would make up imaginary games where the two were both on NFL teams fulfilling their dreams.
Jason takes his shirt off to celebrate Travis’ win
Jason Kelce couldn’t contain his excitement when Travis Kelce, his brother, scored a touchdown. He ripped off his shirt and screamed in pure support!
Now that’s a supportive brother and a sight to see!!
Travis Kelce clearly believes that Jason Kelce’s antics during the Kansas City Chiefs versus Buffalo Bills game were absolutely on point. It’s like they have a telepathic connection, always cheering each other on even when they’re not sharing the field.

Mama Kelce choosing the favorite!
It was epic, especially Travis’ reaction!! After Donna admitted not once but twice that Jason was her favorite.
The younger Kelce brother was not disappointed but rather took it very lightly!
Travis Kelce, always the jokester, couldn’t resist poking fun at his brother for being the favorite child.
He playfully teased Donna, saying, “Well, I guess I’ll just have to work harder to win you over, Mom!”
The whole family erupted in laughter, turning what could have been a tense moment into a lighthearted and fun exchange.

Mama Kelce, with a twinkle in her eye, simply shrugged and said, “Hey, I can’t help it if Jason has always been my little angel.”
But Travis, ever the charmer, replied with a wink, “Well, I may not be the favorite, but at least I’m the funniest!” And with that, the tension dissipated, leaving the Kelce family closer than ever.
Jason supports Tavis’ plan to give Taylor Swift his number
Travis spilled the beans that he had plans to slide Taylor Swift his digits, but alas, the opportunity slipped through his fingers.
Jason, pretending to be all puzzled, then asked him, “Which number? Are we talking jersey number 87 or your phone number?” And with a sly grin, Travis shot back, “Oh, you know exactly which one.”
Let’s just say the chances that they might become in-laws with Swift are pretty high. We are jinxing that!!!
The hug after the Chiefs won the AFC Championship in 2024
Jason strutted onto the field after the Chiefs clinched the AFC Championship in 2024, shedding a tear or two as he gushed about how proud he was of himself and acknowledged the blood, sweat, and tears that got them to this point.
The Kelce brother’s competitiveness got them in NFL
In 2018, NFL Films Presents featured “The Kelce Brothers,” showcasing their tight bond and football journey.
Despite their constant competitiveness growing up, Travis revealed that it actually fueled their NFL dreams. Even though they still face off occasionally, they can’t help but admire each other’s skills on the field.

The Kelce Brothers
Uncle Travis is all about jumping, rolling, and being a pony for his nieces. Who knew this tough guy on the field could be such a softie off the field?
Check out the brotherly love on their podcast, folks! It’s a whole lot of cuteness overload.
Also, let’s keep our fingers crossed that Jason will be Tavis’ best man at his wedding with Taylor, we are waiting!!
