Travis Kelce can relax now as the week is coming to an end! It has been a noisy one for the Kansas City Chiefs tight end, and pretty ‘numerical’ as well. His shoulders must be hurting after carrying the astronomical numbers this long. The TE has broken more records in the last couple of days than the Chiefs have Super Bowl victories. It truly has been one of the most significant weeks in NFL history.

The internet has gone Berserk over the statistics. Patrick Mahomes is probably wondering what happened to his superstar status. But aren’t we all?

When Taylor Swift was first spotted at the Arrowhead last week, no one imagined it would turn out to be this wild. But here we are, 7 days and a couple of records later, which are valued at millions. Starting with the first one, Travis had a commendable performance against the Bears. With 7 catches for 69 yards and ‘that’ standout touchdown, this was Travis’ best display in a long time. Secondly, he has gained over 1.3 million social media followers within a matter of four days, of which 300k+ are alone from Instagram. That’s over 52 new followers a minute.

He also leaves something for the team, too. For his third record, the Jets recorded a 400% increase in jersey sales. The jersey in question is the Kansas City Chiefs TK87 jersey priced at $130 each. And for the last of the countable records, Kelce has landed among the NFL’s top five jersey sales in September, right out of nowhere.

The tight end only falls short of Nick Bosa, Patrick Mahomes, and Joe Burrow. On Thursday, Investor Joe Pompliano confirmed the stats on Twitter. But only god knows how many more unknown records have gone under the radar.

Patrick Mahomes has now some serious catching up to do. The good news is that he has made his own effort in the process.

The Chiefs captain, compared to Travis has made a relatively humble effort to boost his own product line. In his last Instagram story, Patrick shared the launch of a new sneaker from his own wearable brand, called ‘2PM.’ The brand name stands for Patrick Mahomes II and is manufactured by sportswear giant Adidas. Although the brand is a success, it falls far behind Kelce’s jersey in terms of sales. It will be interesting to see what the new sneaker has to offer that can make it an instant hit like TK87.

What else will be interesting is to know what new records get broken if Taylor makes her highly anticipated appearance at the upcoming Jets game next Monday.
