Travis Kelce gets $190,000 in gifts from Chiefs teammates after home robbery

After reeling from a “frustrating” personal nightmare at home, Travis Kelce has been showered with an almighty Christmas bonanza that left him speechless.

Travis Kelce’s teammates and NFL friends gifted the Chiefs star a reported $120,000 worth of memorabilia for Christmas to replace several stolen items from an October home invasion.

The three-time Super Bowl-winning tight end received a box following a team meeting earlier this week that contained replacement jerseys from Tom Brady, Ray Lewis, Rob Gronkowski, Chiefs teammate Patrick Mahomes and several others, according to a report in The US Sun.

Kelce’s brother — retired former Eagles centre Jason Kelce — also helped secure a jersey from former Giants running back and current Eagles star Saquon Barkley.

“He opened the box and felt like a kid at Christmas,” a source was quoted as saying in The Sun. “They are going straight to his man cave, where he loves to hang out. Those pieces are going be so special for him.

“Travis couldn’t stop saying thank you to everyone.”

Kelce’s mansion in Leawood, Kansas was burglarised on Oct. 7 while Taylor Swift’s boyfriend was at Arrowhead Stadium in Kansas City for the Chiefs’ “Monday Night Football” game against the Saints.

Swift, who recently completed her international Eras Tour, reportedly had no personal items stolen from Kelce’s home.

According to police documents by the Cass County Sheriff’s Office, $20,000 in cash and an estimated $100,000 worth of jewellery also was taken from Kelce’s residence, although a watch belonging to him later was discovered in Providence, R.I. by authorities investigating a string of home burglaries at professional athletes’ homes.

Mahomes’ estate in Belton, Mo. also had been burglarised in a separate incident one day ahead of the Kelce break-in, which the superstar quarterback termed “frustrating” and “disappointing.”

Kelce, 35, has yet to comment publicly on the crime at his home, but he reportedly has taken measures to increase security at his residence.

Police believe a South American crime ring is behind the burglaries, and NFL Network has reported that the FBI is investigating the crime wave as international organised crime.

The NFL also sent a memo to all teams alerting them of organised criminals increasingly targeting the homes of professional athletes while they are away from home.

In a Christmas Day victory over the Steelers, Kelce became only the third tight end in NFL history to surpass 1,000 career receptions, behind only Tony Gonzalez and Jason Witten.

He also passed Gonzalez for the most touchdown receptions in Chiefs history with his 77th career TD catch.

The win improved Kansas City’s record this season to 15-1 with one game remaining as they look to become the first NFL team ever to win three consecutive Super Bowls and their fourth in the past six years.
