This week, the sports world laughed and grieved collectively while watching legendary Philadelphia Eagles center and Ohio native Jason Kelce announce his retirement from the NFL in an emotional press conference.
To help celebrate his storied career, the Cleveland Cavaliers are doing their part to commemorate the Super Bowl champ along with his 3-time champion brother, Travis.
The Cavs are giving away Kelce brother bobbleheads at tonight’s game against the Boston Celtics, where both Jason and Travis will be in attendance.

Even though Travis and Jason established their legacies in Kansas City and Philadelphia, respectively, during their storied NFL careers, it’s admirable they never forgot where they came from.
Both Kelce brothers are proud Ohioans and always speak fondly of where they grew up in Cleveland Heights, one of Cleveland’s historic streetcar suburbs.
Jason and Travis also attended the University of Cincinnati together, so they have deep roots in the state of Ohio.
For those unable to attend, the Cavs have also released limited edition Kelce brother Cavaliers merch with all proceeds going to Cleveland Heights Foundation initiatives.
It’s great to see the money going toward an important cause, and kudos to the Cavs for doing this during their biggest game of the season against the NBA’s best team in the 48-12 Celtics.
As for the actual bobbleheads, most fans can relate to having bobbleheads as kids of their favorite players who looked nothing like the player, so major props to the Cavs for making the Kelce brothers look realistic.
Jason and Travis have never looked better.
