Travis Kelce
Travis Kelce, Travis Michael Kelce, is an NFL Tight End currently playing for Kansas City Chiefs of the NFL. His political affiliation is mostly unknown, hidden by his possible lack of interest, which is why he seems to be one of the more lovable athletes in the NFL.[1] [2] Known for being an all-around great individual [3]. He also owns a foundation, referred to as '87 and running', which is dedicated to providing disadvantaged youths in the Cincinnati, Ohio area[4]. One could even say, "Saying that Kelce is the best tight end in the NFL is like saying water is wet."[5]
His older brother, Jason Kelce, is the starting center for the Philadelphia Eagles.

As it stands, Travis succumbed to 'buyer's remorse' after spending a vast majority if his $3.1 million dollar one-year rookie contract on luxury items. [8]
