The Eagles All-Pro center received the Missouri love after the Super Bowl LVII loss. Back in October of last year, Travis’ older brother decided to give back some of the big-brotherly love to Philly. He started the non-profit ‘(Be)Philly Foundation’ to support children and educate students in Philadelphia. And Jason put up a $100,000 goal.

Up until ten days ago, the foundation had collected less than $10,000 in donations. However, that number has quickly risen to cross the desired goal amount. And the Kelces have the Chiefs Kingdom to thank for that. Also, fans donated $14.90 popularly to honor Jason and Travis’ on-field numbers (6(.)2 & 8(.)7).

However, some fans drew comparisons to the usually angry Philly crowd who made a few headlines in Phoenix after the loss.

Jason and Travis Kelce had an emotional Super Bowl

Despite losing, the Kelces still won. And Jason finds himself in an unusual situation. The Super Bowl LII champion broke down in tears when he saw his mother Donna Kelce on the field during the Kansas City celebrations post-Kelce Bowl. However, even during the toughest moments, Jason chose to be the bigger man as he told his mother to “go celebrate with Trav.” Even Patrick Mahomes shares a close relationship with Jason owing to the middleman, Travis.
