The unofficial holiday originated in 2018 and celebrates players such as Brock Bowers, George Kittle, Dallas Goedert and Jake Ferguson, to name a few.
Kelce is considered one of the greatest tight ends of all time. The Ohio native finished the 2023-2024 football season with "93 receptions for 984 yards and five touchdowns," according to NBC News.
Heading into Week 8 of the 2024-2025 season, Kelce had yet to score a touchdown. That changed, however, when he scored his first during the game against the Raiders in Las Vegas on Sunday, Oct. 27.
Kelce has been playing with the Chiefs since 2013, when he was selected in the third-round of the NFL draft that year.
Throughout his career, he has been a Super Bowl Champion three times and has been part of the Pro Bowl for 9 seasons in a row from 2015 to 2023.
He also holds the record for career postseason receptions at 165, set the record for single-season receiving years by a tight end in 2020 and became the fastest tight end to reach 11,000 yards in 2023, among other impressive statistics.
