Travis Kelce and Patrick Mahomes Make a Young Cancer Survivor’s Day
Kansas City Chiefs stars Travis Kelce and Patrick Mahomes recently made a young fan’s day by spending time with 7-year-old Jackson, who recently beat cancer. The heartwarming encounter was captured on video and shared on social media by the Chiefs.
In the video, Mahomes can be seen approaching Jackson and his siblings with a warm greeting, followed by Kelce introducing himself to the group in his usual enthusiastic manner. Jackson, wearing a shirt with Kelce’s number on it, and his sister, sporting a Chiefs-themed shirt, were thrilled to meet the NFL players.
The Chiefs players took the time to sign autographs and pose for photos with the kids, making the experience even more memorable. Running back Isaiah Pacheco even let the children try on his helmet and took pictures with them.
Kelce signed multiple items for Jackson and his siblings, including a pair of gloves that he gifted to them. The kids were overjoyed by the experience, and Jackson’s mother later expressed her gratitude on the Chiefs’ Instagram video, thanking the team for making her son’s day so special.
The encounter took place during the Chiefs’ three-day mandatory mini camp, where the players took a break from their practice to spend time with the young fans. The team will soon begin their official training camp in July at Missouri Western State University, but moments like these remind us of the impact athletes can have off the field.
