T\ufeffravis Kelce<\/a> and the Chiefs<\/a> took out a second-straight Super Bowl<\/a> over a week ago, silencing plenty of doubters by lifting the Vince Lombardi Trophy.<\/p>\n

The 34-year-old had a solid showing for Kansas City in their dramatic 25-22 overtime victory in the NFL<\/a> decider over San Francisco, while star quarterback Patrick Mahomes<\/a> further cemented his legacy as one of the sport's all-time greats.<\/p>\n

The game was watched by more fans across the world than ever, largely due to the impact of Kelce's relationship with global popstar Taylor Swift.<\/p>\n

Speaking exclusively on Nine's Today<\/em>, Ed Kelce opened up on watching his son earn a third Super Bowl ring and the performances of the Chiefs across the 2023\/24 campaign.<\/p>\n

\"Travis<\/p>\n

"Particularly when you consider that they had a rough season, things did not go the way they wanted for a good portion of the season," he said.<\/p>\n

"There were a lot of doubters out there – but once the playoffs started, they turned it on and the result is they got to pick up another ring. They've got three of them now.<\/p>\n

\ufeff"It's been a good season, it's been hectic – a lot of travel, but a lot of fun."<\/p>\n

Kelce revealed he missed the post-game party in Las Vegas, which saw both his sons Travis and Jason enjoying the celebrations, given it was "past his bedtime".<\/p>\n

The aftermath of the Super Bowl wasn't all smooth sailing however, with a horrific shooting incident during Kansas City's hometown parade marring the result.<\/p>\n

\ufeff"I didn't go to Kansas City for the parade," Kelce said.<\/p>\n

"But people that were there as soon as that started made sure that they got in touch with me and let me know that nobody I knew was injured.<\/p>\n

"It's a shame that a wonderful celebration like that has to be marred by people who were just feuding with each other."<\/p>\n

Kelce also spoke candidly about his interactions with Swift, describing the singer as 'grounded' and 'down to earth' despite her worldwide fame.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
