Travis Kelce made headlines after his unexpected interaction with a young fan following the Kansas City Chiefs and Las Vegas Raiders game on Sunday. Interestingly, the NFL star also made this heartwarming gesture during National Tight Ends Day.

While the Week 8 matchup between the Chiefs and Raiders was intense, Kelce touched fans’ hearts by showing them some love.

In a video posted by the team’s official Instagram account, the 35-year-old tight end greeted the crowd and gave high-fives.

What made the interaction truly special was when the three-time Super Bowl champion surprised a young Chiefs fan by handing him the yellow gloves he wore during the game.

The boy, who would undoubtedly treasure this moment for a lifetime, was incredibly shocked and speechless after catching them from Kelce.

Meanwhile, the comment section was filled with joy, lauding the genuine gesture from the NFL star.

“Love this. He made such a memorable night for many people,” one wrote, while another said, “Very lucky kid. The best tight end on National Tight End Day! GO TRAV!!!”

Interestingly, many couldn’t help but mention Kelce’s girlfriend, Taylor Swift, who is also known for her exceptional fan service.

“This is his 22-hat moment,” a fan commented, referencing the pop star’s gesture at her Eras Tour concert, where she gave the “22” hat to fans as a symbol of connection with her supporters.
