Kelce was born in 1989, the same year as Taylor Swift, so he turned 26 on Sunday. Even though Kelce has actually said that he\u2019s\u00a0not someone who likes celebrating\u00a0his birthday, the\u00a0Kansas City Chiefs\u00a0still took the time to do a special tribute for Kelce.<\/p>\n<p>The\u00a0Kansas City Chiefs\u00a0and Kelce go way back. Kansas City drafted\u00a0Kelce in the third round, 63rd overall, out of the University of Cincinnati, during the 2013 NFL draft, and\u00a0he\u2019s been with the team\u00a0for his\u00a0entire NFL career.<\/p>\n<p>It would be really impossible to imagine Kelce with any other\u00a0NFL\u00a0team at this point, even though there\u2019s always talk about what would happen if he decided to retire from another franchise. But, it just likely won\u2019t happen.<\/p>\n<p>Considering the deep, rich history that Kelce and the Chiefs have together, it makes sense that they would want to properly celebrate his birthday, even if he isn\u2019t a big birthday person. So, the Chiefs made it a point to pay tribute to Kelce on his special day.<\/p>\n<h2>Kansas City Chiefs Pay Tribute to Travis Kelce<\/h2>\n<div id=\"8616172da1fc2e13b824dfc520879bb5\" class=\"embed_container\">\n<div class=\"lazy-embed lazy-embed--ssr embed-instagram-com lazy-embed--loaded\" data-url=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/p\/DPbyUS2kXeK\/\"><iframe id=\"instagram-embed-0\" class=\"instagram-media instagram-media-rendered\" src=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/p\/DPbyUS2kXeK\/embed\/captioned\/?cr=1&amp;v=14&amp;wp=656&amp;rd=https%3A%2F%2Fheavy.com&amp;rp=%2Fsports%2Fnfl%2Fkansas-city-chiefs%2Fchiefs-share-birthday-travis-kelce%2F#%7B%22ci%22%3A0%2C%22os%22%3A21849.299999999814%7D\" height=\"1114\" frameborder=\"0\" scrolling=\"no\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\" data-instgrm-payload-id=\"instagram-media-payload-0\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"><\/iframe><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>The\u00a0Kansas City Chiefs\u00a0shared not one, not two but three tributes to Kelce on his birthday.
