On the field, he’s Kansas City Chiefs star tight end Travis Kelce, but when he’s home with family, he’s Uncle Trav.
Travis Kelce is proud uncle to his older brother Jason’s three daughters with wife Kylie, Wyatt, Elliotte and Bennett.
“He is like the absolute best uncle you can imagine,” Kylie told PEOPLE in early 2023. “He’s all in.”
Here, some of Uncle Trav’s cutest moments with his nieces, from podcast hellos to awesome birthday gifting.
When He Held His Niece for the First Time

In a scene from the brothers’ Amazon Prime Video documentary Kelce, Jason introduced his brother to the newest member of the family, daughter Bennett.
The secret to holding her, Jason said? “Just like a football.”
“Hey girlie,” Travis said sweetly to his new niece. “How we doin?”

On an October 2023 episode of the brothers’ podcast New Heights, Jason told his younger bro that Wyatt “loves” the present Uncle Trav got her for her 4th birthday: a Polaroid camera!
“There’s nothing cooler than a little kid snapping pics on a Polaroid,” Travis said.

Those smiles! During an October 2023 episode of New Heights, Jason brought 2-year-old Elliotte on to show off her sunglasses.
@newheightshow This was easily Uncle Travvy’s favorite part of recording today’s show 🥺
“She’s stylin’?” Travis asked.
“Movie star!” Jason said as he picked her up for the cameras.
“I love it!” Travis said, pumping his fists as Jason set her down. “Do you tell her when she puts on the sunglasses that she’s invisible like they do in Big Daddy?”
When He Honored Wyatt’s Ask to Talk to ‘Uncle Trav’
In the same October 2023 episode of New Heights, Wyatt “asked if she could say hi,” Jason told his brother.
“What’s up girly? How are you doing?” Travis asked. “How was gymnastics?”
“What are you wearing? Tell Uncle Trav what you’re wearing,” Jason added.
“A leotard!” she replied enthusiastically.
Travis also got to say hi to niece Elliotte, smiling wide as she appeared on screen. He asked her how she was doing and the toddler couldn’t stop smiling.
“You’re smiling big,” Travis said. “You’re making my day.”
