Travis Kelce’s Kansas City Chiefs teammates have treated him to a lavish range of Christmas gifts worth a staggering $120,000 in a bid to replace some items stolen from his home.
Kelce’s $6million mansion was raided by thieves back in October, with the Super Bowl winner reportedly losing a number of cherished items.
That included $100,000 in jewelry, $20,000 in cash, his first Super Bowl jersey and a watch that has since been found in Rhode Island. They reportedly spent less than 15 minutes inside the property.
The FBI continues to investigate the case and Kelce, who was said to be ‘upset and angry’ at being robbed, responded by bolstering his home security amid an NFL warning that a South American crime gang could be behind multiple players being targeted.
Despite that, Chiefs stars have tried to lift Kelce’s spirits by replacing some of the beloved items stolen with an emotional Christmas gift for the tight end.
According to The Sun, Kelce was handed a box following a team meeting and told to open it straight away.
Inside, Kelce found jerseys belonging to NFL icons like Tom Brady, Ray Lewis and Rob Gronkowski. The collection is expected to have cost $120,000.
‘He opened the box and felt like a kid at Christmas,’ a source said.
‘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.’
It’s claimed that ‘everybody contributed’ to the idea and Travis’ older brother Jason even called on his contacts in Philadelphia to get a jersey belonging to Eagles running back Saquon Barkley.
Kelce’s close friend Patrick Mahomes also donated his own Chiefs jersey for the present.
