A rainy “Monday Night Football” inspired Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce and his teammates to bust out their jacket game and Kelce’s red wool wonder paid homage to the team’s Texas roots.
For all you new Chiefs fans out there — we’re looking at you Swifties — here’s why he wore a jacket that seemed to belong to another football team.
The Kansas City Chiefs were the Dallas Texans from 1960 to 1962 in the American Football League. Then in 1963, team owner Lamar Hunt, a Texan, moved the team to Kansas City and it was renamed the Chiefs.
Kelce's snap-front jacket was not just any outerwear. It was an exact reproduction of the team jacket worn by the Dallas Texans in 1960. Every detail, from the construction to the embroidered elements, was meticulously recreated to pay homage to the early days of the franchise.
Travis Kelce's red wool wonder isn't just a stylish fashion choice; it's a living tribute to the rich history of the Kansas City Chiefs and their roots as the Dallas Texans. By donning this meticulously crafted reproduction of the 1960 team jacket, Kelce not only elevates his jacket game but also connects with the team's legacy, adding another layer of depth to the Monday Night Football spectacle.
