After the Kansas City Chiefs won Super Bowl LVII on Sunday at State Farm Arena in Phoenix, Arizona, a touching moment was shared between Travis Kelce, the 33-year-old tight end for the winning team, and his brother, Jason Kelce, a 35-year-old center for the Philadelphia Eagles.
Despite the defeat, Jason remained in good spirits as he and Travis hugged, making history as the first time two brothers have ever faced each other in the Super Bowl on opposing teams.
Jason was also seen embracing the Chiefs’ quarterback, Patrick Mahomes.
During the game, Ed and Donna Kelce, the parents of the two players, chose to sit apart. Donna was in the luxury box with Commissioner Roger Goodell, while Ed chose to sit in the stadium seats, referring to himself as a “blue-collar grunt.”

Before the big game, Travis and Jason’s mother, Donna, spoke with ET’s Kevin Frazier and expressed her excitement about the unprecedented event. She said it was like a dream come true for her sons to both play in the Pro Bowl and then face each other in the Super Bowl.
Although she couldn’t choose a winner, Donna revealed that she currently favors Jason more, due to his grandchildren, but added that as a mother, she could never pick one son over the other.
On Monday’s episode of the Kelce brothers’ podcast, “New Heights with Jason and Travis Kelce,” they interviewed their mother and she spoke about the pure joy she will experience watching her sons on the biggest stage in the NFL.
She mentioned that the first two Super Bowls, which Travis played in, were tense, but this one will be pure joy and the best day ever, with both of her sons on the field.
