In a post on X, formerly known as Twitter, the football players from Cleveland Heights sent a video to Kelce wishing him good luck in Super Bowl LVIII.

On Sunday, Kelce will take the field in his fourth Super Bowl as the Chiefs take on the San Francisco 49ers at Allegiant Stadium in Las Vegas. Kickoff for the game is set for 6:30 p.m. 

The Kansas City Chiefs tight end has been in the spotlight for the whole season, not only for his Hall of Fame worthy performances on the field, but his relationship off the field. 

Kelce and popstar Taylor Swift, who just announced her latest album, The Tortured Poets Department, at the Grammy Awards, started dating at the beginning of the 2023 NFL season.

Since the launch of their relationship, Swifties have started to take the football world by storm, showing their love for Kelce and Swift's relationship.  

On Wednesday, FAME: Travis Kelce, a comic book highlighting his story of how he became who he is today, was released. 

This is the newest title in the "FAME" comic book series. Other celebrities that have been featured in their own comic books in the past include David Beckham, Taylor Swift, Lil Nas X, Drake and Selena Gomez.
