Jason and Ed Kelce mobbed by fans as they arrive at Kelce Car Jam to celebrate Travis’ 35th birthday
Jason and Ed Kelce arrived Saturday evening for Travis’ annual charity event, Kelce Car Jam, in Kansas City, which also fell on the Chiefs’ 35th anniversary.
Travis’ older brother and father were expected in town to celebrate his birthday, while his mother, Donna Kelce, also made an appearance at the event.
Jason will call Monday Night Football for the first time in two days as Travis and the Chiefs host the Saints.
Kelce, who turned 35 on Saturday, is once again hosting the annual car show to raise money for children in the Kansas City and Cleveland areas.
It is unclear whether he will be joined that evening by girlfriend Taylor Swift, who is currently enjoying a gap in her international Eras Tour schedule.

The siblings kick off Saturday afternoon by hosting Kelce Car Jam – a showcase of muscle cars and swish rides from Kelce and his car enthusiast friends.
In September, US Weekly reported that Swift planned to attend the event, with the publication saying, “Swift will likely be on hand to celebrate his birthday on October 5 with family and friends at his Kelce Car Jam in Kansas City.”
Travis said on his podcast this week that he planned to show off the 1970 Chevrolet Chevelle he drove the pop megastar around Kansas City last year after she went to her first Chiefs game.
“This year is the second year we’re hosting a car show, basically a block party style event, where some of the city’s best cars from the Fuel House, a fun car club here, will be on display,” Kelce said.
“And then I think there’s a lot of others lining up. It’s going to be fun. I should have my old ’70 Chevelle all revved up, ready to rock’n’roll. If not, I’ll take one of the other cars I have.”
“It’s always fun to go out here in Kansas City. Kansas City, they show up every time I’ve done something fundamental, and I love them for that.”
Kelce’s Chiefs teammate George Karlaftis also showed up about an hour after it started.

There has been speculation all week that Taylor is heading to Kansas City, with rumors swirling that she would rent a popular barbecue restaurant for a celebration ahead of her birthday on Wednesday night.
However, there have been no confirmed sightings of the ‘Bad Blood’ singer, who has made significant efforts to mask her flight details and whereabouts since the thwarted terror attack at her concert in Vienna in August.
Swift wasn’t there to see the Chiefs beat the Los Angeles Chargers 17-10 last Sunday. But according to a well-placed source, her absence is not an indication that her romance with Kelce is cooling down.
She simply doesn’t see much of her boyfriend when he’s away, and this season she’s expected to limit herself to attending the Chiefs’ home games at Arrowhead Stadium, including possibly Monday night’s game with the Saints.
That arrangement means they can instead enjoy some quiet time at the sprawling $6 million home Kelce bought last year in an exclusive Kansas City suburb.
