Kansas City Chiefs star Travis Kelce and his brother, former Philadelphia Eagles star Jason Kelce, recently showed their support for NBA legend LeBron James in a heartfelt way.
In their “New Heights” podcast’s latest episode, Travis Kelce was seen wearing a special “We Are Family x ILTHY” limited edition cap.
Accodring to ILTHY, the cap supports the LeBron James Family Foundation, which helps kids and families in Akron, Ohio, through educational programs and other initiatives.
The gesture came just days after James congratulated Travis Kelce on social media for setting a new NFL record. In the Chiefs’ recent victory over the Houston Texans, Travis Kelce achieved his ninth 100-yard receiving game in the playoffs, breaking the record held by the legendary Jerry Rice.
James took to X to celebrate the milestone.
“Congrats brother!! NFL record for most 100 rec yard games(9),” James wrote.
Jason Kelce brought up LeBron James’ post and Travis Kelce was visibly excited about the recognition.
“Now, see, this got me going, this was great,” Travis Kelce said.

Despite his excitement, the Chiefs tight end clarified that individual records are not his main focus.
“All these stats and accolades and everything, they’ll be cool when I’m done playing.”
Jason Kelce chimed in, acknowledging his brother’s dedication to the team goals. However, he pointed out that James clearly cared about the record.
“This is why LeBron’s stats matter, because LeBron tweets about you.”
Travis Kelce and the Chiefs are now preparing for a crucial AFC championship showdown against the Buffalo Bills. With their eyes set on making NFL history by winning three consecutive Super Bowls, the team remains focused on the bigger picture.
